If you choose to live today there is no reason, that I see, that you will not choose to live tomorrow or the day after. That includes 50 years from now, that day will be your today. Stop minimizing the meaning of death, deferring it to the future. Today 110,000 people will die,
“Together with the finding that the cytomegalovirus-packaged gene therapies, delivered by injection or intranasally, increased the lifespan of the mice by 41 percent without increasing the cancer risk, the finding is extremely encouraging.”
"They found that a single administration of the mutant anti-ageing gene halted the decay of heart function in middle aged mice...."

Why longevity? In prioritizing longevity, we are acknowledging the profound impact that extending our lifespans can have on our ability to witness and participate in the unfolding of technological advancements. By prioritizing our health and well-being, we ensure that we have the

This gene therapy will be the most expensive drug licensed under the NHS, and of course, it is gene therapy. We can drive the cost down of these therapies by treating the biggest unmet medical need on the planet. Aging.
Moving forward to longer lives means that humans will need to learn to have more respect for each other. I do not support the sexual harassment or bullying of anyone, at any age or any gender. Power and ego have no place in our future.
Please sign, it's free to do and declares the stakeholders "...immediately expand research on extending healthy human lifespans" and immediately "start targeting the underlying processes of aging". It is now within our reach! and, the journey to clinical development must begin.
I have been pushing for this for years, human data is the data that matters to human drug development. Lots to work on in this area. "Congress has responded to the emergence of nonanimal methods and growing public sentiment against animal research."

Aging is a universal process, but we have yet to master it. As our population ages, the need for solutions that can restore cognitive and physical function will only increase—and so will the cost.

Everyday I believe more and more that the growing list of the hallmarks of aging are the diseases and it would simplify the process of treating biological aging itself.
We can do this with many other diseases, including the aging process.

Biological aging is the loss of function over time.
It is not the same as chronological aging.
Animals like the naked mole rat exhibit negligible senescence.
In other words, they remain youthful, rather than spending the latter half of their lives becoming decrepit.

Time is irreplaceable, which makes it among the world’s most valuable commodities.
Note, however, that it is just that - a commodity.
Youthfulness gives it value. BioViva understands that youth and vitality are inextricably linked.
There is no such thing as “healthy aging.”
“All four genes are thought to be important for longevity because they address fundamental molecular processes linked to age-related pathologies, like muscle wasting and shortening of the tips of chromosomes, which leads to deterioration of cell function.”
"The explanation of why physical exercise, the longevity hormone Klotho and blood transfusion from “young” individuals can induce cognitive improvement is linked to the action of a common factor––the secretion of PF4."
