Yep, we're still 100% mortal, and it's this big thing that looms over everybody. Nothing has changed in that regard. We die just as much as we ever did. I had a terrible fever when I was 3, I probably wouldn't have made it if it wasn't for modern health care. Beyond that, though, I've only needed modern healthcare for ailments caused by modernity: Tooth problems from sugar and not chewing enough, and also I was hit by a car. Talking about cruel healthcare practices, though, can you imagine being on your back with a tube shoved down your throat for weeks while you slowly suffocate to death like some of those peeps in the COVID wards? 3 of my 4 grandparents are dead, and all but one died in slow, drawn out and excruciatingly painful ways.
