How far away are we from longevity escape velocity?
Current techniques only add a few months to a mouse's lifespan, how far away are we to have at least a doubling of a mouse's lifespan?

We're two or three George Floyds away from civilization collapse. There will be no extraterrestrial exploration bases. There will be no 1000 year life extension therapies. Want to see our future? Look to Liberia because that's as good as it will get.

I don't care if society collapses as long as I own a lab that manufactures resveratrol in my underground bunker

Aubrey's new foundation are currently undertaking the first real experiment towards Robust Mouse Rejuvenation. He provides monthly updates on Facebook and Twitter. Here are the results thus far.

How far did medicine improved human life-span so far? 0 years.

I've been following Aubrey for 10+ years but even a success of RMR won't mean anything, the public won't care

Also rapamycin won't likely extend lifespan in humans, while senolytics (which are underperfoming in RMR right now) might be much more important

If the public starts to care, it will be bad news, the price of these drugs will increase and only rich people will be able to afford them.

Ask yourself this question, anon... would you really want to be around for 200 years?

Frankly, I'm fucking astonished most people don't eat a gun by 40.

Brother I want to. I can't seem to keep my shit together financially long enough to make children a responsible decision. I refuse to raise my children in poverty the way I was raised but all of my efforts to make a better life for myself and my wife seem to be rebuffed by reality.

I don't know, man. This seems to be the first real proof of concept. Aubrey seems to be convinced, and he has been for years, that if this makes waves it will mean to a complete change.

Guess you'd better work to prevent police brutality then

Best that can be done is to stay healthy and exercise to avoid heart disease, cancer, diabetes, dementia, etc. That should allow a healthy person to live to their 90s at best. We're probably a few decades away from any treatments that can significantly extend human lifespan. Anything that is actually found to work will end up going through the FDA approval pipeline and that can take 10 years or more.
