When did AC become a necessity of living? It was non existent at one time and people lived comfortably. Why do they die from a lack of it now?

Well, the persons who are now 95 years old and completely dependent upon modern technology to stay alive would not have lived that long back then.

Actually quite a few people died of heat back then. It was just called apoplexy.

Just like lots of people back then died of heart attacks but it was called “Indigestion”.
