Scanning to see cancers earlier and prevent heart attacks is not going to add 20 years to your life anyway. You can have organ failure even without cancer, and you can die of many other conditions as well. It's not a silver bullet.


And you can get hit by a bus too - adding 20 years to lifespan is in terms of the aggregate not the individual.
