Aging and Longevity

Significant advancements in medicine have led to increased life expectancy, yet the maximum age at death appears to have plateaued. While the number of centenarians is rising, their average age at death hasn't changed since 1968, suggesting a potential upper limit to human lifespan. Quality of life, or health span, is also a crucial aspect, emphasizing that living longer doesn't necessarily equate to living healthier.
