World's oldest man, Juan Vicente Perez, dies aged 114

That's pretty neat.

I'm expecting more people to begin to live to advanced ages, if the Lord tarries. Not just because modern medicine is so much better - I don't believe it is, and when you add all of the 'goings on' of big pharma, well .... I should stop talking.

But, I think so many people are living to be 100+ these days, and length of life will increase, for a number of reasons, the first being that people want to live longer - they have things yet to accomplish, family & friends they love and don't want to leave, even jobs they're heavily involved in & not ready to leave, so they're working living, staying alive. They are taking more time to get health care, and to do research into what is best for them to eat & drink and take in the way of vitamins and supplements. They're getting more exercise. That's a biggie.

^^^ All of that is my take on the situation of humanity and lifespan, regardless of what I've seen and heard since the pandemic about lifespan decreasing. I may not be right, but that's my perception.
