If they take too much, you’ll die in the next five minutes...

[teeman8r]

i can administer a blood test that can tell if you are going to die in the next thirty seconds...

I have a blood test that will predict if you'll die in the next 100 years.
It's pretty accurate.

[Red Badger]

I don’t think they need but a few milliliters, not a quart...............

[antidemoncrat]

We are all going to die in 12.5 years due to climate change so don’t bother with this.

Don't need a blood test, just do something Darwinistic and you're out of the gene pool....

Trust me, and you won't even realize your gone....

[Political Junkie Too]

...one day, all of us will die.

My money's on Saturday.

Seriously, shouldn't that be "each of us will die one day?"

Where’s the Star Trek thingy where you zap the blood to determine nutritional deficiencies and then zap them again to bring nutrient levels back to ‘normal’?

[jmaroneps37]

People over 90 get the test free?

Here, hold muh beer and take muh blood....

[Reily]

and if you don’t do you get your money back?
or may they come and kill you so the products reputation isn’t damaged?

“But if you could find out exactly when you’ll die, would you want to know?”

It is not for the person to know the manner or the hour of the transition to the next plane of existence.

There is no certainty of eternal existence on this earth, an event never recorded in all time, and like a CD, the song eventually does end.

In the end, you shall lose everything, your youth, your friends, your family, your wealth, all the glories you have won in this lifetime, your memories, your exquisite good looks, your wealth, and eventually, life itself. The best you can do is to make the retreat into the final corner as difficult as possible for those who would try to drive you into the corner before your are ready for it.

“We subsequently show that the prediction accuracy of 5- and 10-year mortality based on a model containing the identified biomarkers and sex is better than that of a model containing conventional risk factors for mortality.”

So they have developed a test to predict future mortality. It is not accurate, just more accurate than guessing.

Seriously, shouldn’t that be “each of us will die someday”?

A panel whose members include Algore, Mitt Romney and AOC agree.
