   Cox regression analyzes demonstrated that frequent falling, old age and a self-reported worsening of health were significantly associated with mortality during the follow-up period. Their relative risks of death when experiencing at least two falls was 1.6 (95% CI 1.1-2.4), P = 0.04, when compared with no falls. Older fallers appear to have markedly increased mortality

   afaik falling is a major risk factor, or predictor. not sure if it’s causative but it definitely can be

     @triodug gerald ford was famous for it, chevy chase used to do skits about it on saturday night live. they probably won't joke about biden doing it becuase he's literally 80 and nobody expects an 80 year old to be able to walk, just I guess lead the entire country

     @Moon @triodug my 90 year old grandma, in the last 20 years of her life, only tripped once and then died months later

     Wild to think that there's probably more eyewitness accounts of Biden tripping than any president in history. Even fucking FDR.
