Why are many illnesses more likely to be fatal to the elderly?
Many illnesses are more likely to be fatal to the elderly because they often have weaker immune systems and multiple underlying health conditions. Age-related changes in the body's defenses and a decline in organ function can make it harder for older adults to fight off infections and recover from illness. Additionally, the aging process itself can contribute to a higher risk of complications and reduced resilience to illness.
What are the problems of having an elderly population?
The problems about having an elderly population is that in an elderly population, the older you are, the body can't function as well as it used to when it was younger. The brain can't calulate information as fast. Since the body is weaker, the old people can't escape situations as quickly. For example, if they trip on something, they will have trouble getting back up. Also, bones of the elderly can break more easily. Nationwise, more money would have to go toward healthcare to make sure the elderly don't die. Also, elderly people would be less interested in big changes (sometimes they like to keep things the old-fashioned way). I think that in the future someday that the elderly bodies could be fixed and renewed to the same behaviors of younger bodies via... nanobots! So, in the future we could have an elderly population without the negative consequences.
Why do old people feel insecure?
Not all old people feel insecure, but a great many do. The reasons are: poor health; they can't see well enough to drive and have to rely on others to get out to doctors appointments or just shopping; diseases such as Alzheimer's/Dementia (memory loss) where the individual may not recognize where they are if they should go out. Most elderly would like to retain their dignity and independence for as long as they can. It is difficult for the elderly to rely on family or friends for support and often feel they are a burden and some elderly people have a great fear of being put in a nursing home and forgotten by family. The elderly are often targeted for phone scams or even scams on the Internet. The elderly most often are inclined not to get into technology as the younger generations do and may feel confused and lost. Some elderly have lost their mate to death and their chances of finding another mate to go through life with is more difficult (some are lucky) and therefore they feel extremely lonely and forgotten. Elderly depression is also high on the list.
