If immortality is out of the question, I'd love to get an extra 20-50 years of life experience, assuming science can keep my body healthy and the experience fulfilling, so I get very hopeful when I see stories like these.

Or even just those last years full of energy and not bedridden and weak.
That would be wonderful too.
I think it would be bad for the economy, particularly if everyone had access to it, therefore i suspect if it actually would pan out, some researchers would disappear and the world would never see this released, or it would be made inaccessible to most people somehow (probably money). I'm pessimistic, but of course i also hope we do see something like that in our lifetimes.
I got COVID right now. I would be satisfied with a bunch of COVIDphile poisonous dogs set free in every city. The idea is that if any dumbass leaves their house with COVID, they will be less likely to reproduce. It's not a high tech COVID vaccine but I bet it would be pretty effective.
Whoever gave me COVID, I hope your headache is bigger than mine you fuck!
