This is a really interesting analysis; as it shapes (and reflects) how society thinks about death and illness… and violence, etc. It seems that “aging” as a key and malleable factor in death has a long way to go before it gets appropriate levels of attention.
Karl suggests: Age-related diseases caused 75+% of deaths but were <25% of news.
