Thats exactly what Im thinking. Hawking and those elites who are ill may go to Epstein island for adrenochrome to prolong their lives. He was an atheist so there would have been fewer scruples about how it was harvested. Remember Bill Clinton was very ill at one point.
This also gets back to the big pharma questions Q posted. What if adrenochrome is the answer to many illnesses, or at least slows them down, and the elites are hoarding it for themselves? They may also fear the revelations about how its been discovered and used. Or they just want more of us to die out.
Doubt it is or only is adrenochrome. There are a lot of cutting edge and unapproved (and very expensive) life-extension treatments, plus other treatments for specific situations.
All those under consideration have personal assets that allow them access to such treatments....and not all are successful in every instance.
After all, Hawking is dead.
