Risk of death always 100%.
- giantg2 5y agoRisk of death eventually 100%.
- nradov 5y agoIn cancer care by convention they look at 5 year survival rates.
- gregjor 5y agoI know. The headline is still wrong. Aspirin may improve one’s chance of living more than five years with cancer. Everyone will die, with or without cancer, with or without aspirin.
- 88840-8855 5y agoProbability of death of an individual is on average 100%. Edit: honestly, how autistic can one be to vote this down? lol
- cortic 5y agoprobability of death of an individual is under 100%, as not everyone is dead yet.
- doggodaddo78 5y agoWhat kind of cake?
- loa_in_ 5y agoRisk (a chance of an adverse event) of death always approaches 100% given enough time. Eventually the set of all possible events that can happen to you is smaller and smaller, and proportionally more of the probability space is occupied by events that lead to your death.
- gregjor 5y agoWho said anything about adverse? Every person alive will die, 100% chance. I understand the point of the article and the hundreds of other like it proclaiming coffee or red wine or friends reduce the “risk of death.” They mean to say reduces the number of test subjects who died during the study period. Nothing reduces the risk, though. We all die.
