I am once again making a thread reminding you all we have not figured out shit when it comes to longevity
Reasonable lifespans are still 75-90 just like they were hundreds of years ago if you didn't get consumption
Cancer is still a death sentence
Everyone gets dementia eventually
We have no idea how to clear plaque out of arteries so heart disease runs wild
This new hantavirus thing is just another step in us not advancing shit cause we still have no good ways to deal with viruses cause vaccines suck when society stops trusting them

Ans I am once again reminding you the core premise of this thread is false.

>Reasonable lifespans are still 75-90 just like they were hundreds of years ago if you didn't get consumption
wrong. reasonable lifespans were you're likely to die as a child. that's why the average lifespan was so low. if you think i'm saying people didn't live to 90, you're wrong again.
>Cancer is still a death sentence
nope. gene therapies are making great strides and what used to be a cancer rate with 100% death rate is now down to single digits or even 20% at most. this is remarkable btw.
>Everyone gets dementia eventually
not even close to true.
>We have no idea how to clear plaque out of arteries so heart disease runs wild
healthy diet.
>This new hantavirus thing is just another step in us not advancing shit cause we still have no good ways to deal with viruses cause vaccines suck when society stops trusting them
ultrasound is being developed to uniquely destroy viruses while not destroying your cells. not to mention mrna vaccines which are revolutionary.

I take some perverse satisfaction in watching human cattle worries itself to death about inherently irrelevant things as it continues to piss away its life in service to the technotroon slavery system.

All this shows is that we're better at treating problems, not that we're actually having any real impact on ageing.

Aging is "problems" compounding over time. Dealing with problems is dealing with aging.
