The share of persons aged 18-64 years who report being in excellent or good health. 2020.

Click on the buttons below to see the figures for total, sexual orientation and gender identity, respectively:

Total   Sexual orientation   Gender identity  

Note: Because the data in VIVE (2022) distinguish between “excellent” and “good” for sexual orientation, but not for gender identity, we are unable to calculate the precise difference between “homosexual” and “bisexual”. The share who report being in “good” health is significantly larger for “homosexual” and “bisexual” than for “heterosexual”, just as the difference between “transgender and nonbinary” and “cisgender” persons is significant.
