When looking forwards to how medical technology will help us live longer lives, I’m inspired by all the previous developments in history where once incurable diseases became treatable. This article many of the first times that someone didn’t die of a disease that had killed everyone before them, from rabies, to end-stage kidney disease, to relapsing leukaemia.
I wonder what it was like to live during a time where everyone was trusting of experts and grateful for breakthroughs.
