Scientists probe anti-ageing gene

BBC NEWS | Science/Nature | Scientists probe anti-ageing gene



What would the world do if we stumbled across a chemical or biological agent that halted the aging process, and offered us almost eternal life?

Would the drug be given away freely, sold to an elite few for millions of dollars, or would it be locked away in vaults and treated with the same dread as chemical and biological agents used as weapons of mass destruction?

I want a science fiction writer to invent a world where science has unlocked the secret to eternal youth, routinely treats cancer by injecting nanobots, and offers cheap industrialized cloning to infertile couples. IE What happens to the world if we never die and continue to propagate?
