We all have varying opinions about the impact of this, the numbers, etc. We will all never agree with each other. But we can all keep it civil.

Thanks!

And you're a fucking crybaby to boot.

Why am I not surprised that you're as fucking stupid and childish as I suspected?

Not only overdose, but die from desalinization of your blood.

No, there are plenty of healthy older people who are not obese, not diabetic and do not have hypertension because they make good lifestyle decisions and take care of their health.
Lol is this the conclusion you have come to? That if some medical ailment isn't caused by one's lifestyle, then everyone is going to experience that ailment? So I don't smoke and I know an older person that never smoked, but they have lung cancer, so I and everyone else that hasn't smoked will now get lung cancer as we age? What about the non smokers that are elderly and don't have lung cancer? Is it just dormant or undiagnosed? What about dementia? Age is probably the number one risk factor for dementia, but I know plenty of old people that don't have it. What lifestyle choices have caused these people with dementia to get it?

People have underlying conditions all the time that are not caused by any type of lifestyle choice you fucking moron. Hopefully your lifestyle choices leads you in front of an oncoming train.

Seems like it. Everybody has or will get something especially when you get up in age. That is just life.

Then go to sleep while watching TV.

I will say this, there is one older\elderly person that lead a healthy lifestyle and that was my mom. She was a small lady, maybe weighed 110 lbs and she walked 2-3 miles a day and ate great. But she ended up with Parkinson's and died at 73 so she wasn't entirely "healthy"
Yeah that’s kind of the rub. You never quite know. My paternal grampa lived until he was 94 and was mentally sharp as a tack until the end. He could move around fine(for a 94 year old)but he hadn’t done shit for exercise for decades, ate Kit Kat and Hershey’s bars all day, drank Vodka all day, and had a belly that made Santa jealous. But was fine until 94! WTF? That’s why I try to balance and be relatively healthy-ish without becoming one of those people that only eats Kale and spends 5 hours per day working out. It’s just not worth it to me.

No doubt lifestyle plays a big factor, but genetics trumps it considerably.

My wife’s grandma was 102 and she never turned down dessert ,and always brought some home , used her walker to do groceries for the 70 year olds in her nursing home , survived 2 cancers , bleeding ulcer surgery at 97 , genetics/ luck. Her mom was over 100 as well

We have 103 year old who bought a new car 3 gears ago, was golfing till 100, genetics

I think stress is a big issue , these two old timers never seemed to worry about anything .

Local authorities in Germany on Friday said they would reimpose some lockdown measures after seeing a cluster of new coronavirus infections, just days after Chancellor Angela Merkel announced a gradual reopening of the country.

In Germany's most populous state of North Rhine-Westphalia, the regional government said there had been a spike in cases at a slaughterhouse in the district of Coesfeld, where over 150 of the 1,200 employees tested positive for the virus.

I was at my doctor’s office three years ago in the waiting room. I spoke with a lady that had driven from Stevenson’s Ranch, which is about a 30-45 minute drive to the doctor’s office in Burbank. She talked about the bad traffic that morning and some other small talk. She was wearing jeans and T-Shirt and I took her for anywhere from 68 to maybe 72ish.

When I go back to meet with the doc, he said “I saw you taking to Jenny. Guess how old she is?”, to which I replied “72”.

The doc looked at me and laughed then said “101”. I nearly fell of the table.

Genetics, man, genetics.
