Oh man... don't you just want him to try some experimental shit that backfires immediately and horribly. And for this to happen very, very soon.

Stalin may have lived longer. He had a heart attack that may have been able to be survived, but no doctor in the room would treat him. It's debated if it was due to fear of punishment if they failed, or due to everybody wanting that asshole to die.
Either way, he may have lived 20 more years if doctors did something besides nothing.
That being said, maybe todays russian doctors will be equally helpful. That is to say, they do nothing if something goes wrong.
Wasnt it a stroke and no one disturbed him for ages in his office effectively enabling his desth through inaction
Some could have opened the door them quietly walked away. The world may never know.
I propose that the ruzzians come up with volunteer doctors for putin. And sure, let's try anything and everything these guys come up with...on putin! You know, to extend his life! I heard lemons are good for life injection!
Is this bullshit? This feels like bullshit.

Hey, you said you wanted to pivot towards China. What better way than to adopt the Chinese Emperor diet?
90% emperors cut funding to immortality elixir research just before breakthrough
Truth is, they have to be large pieces and taken as a suppository.
I'm pretty sure I saw a video of this that scarred me as a child
I can still see it clear as day right now. Only watched it once ~15 years ago but that was enough to burn it into my retinas.
Ancient Chinese medicine always works, trust me bro, just take a bunch of mercury every day. The Chinese did it before and that dude has an amazing tomb now so it's all cool. Just do it.
Mercury makes you insane before you die. He’d likely start a nuclear war, and then die.
So, inject in the vein
Yeah I think that one is still pretty far away. The degradation of the DNA in all the various cells of your body over time is a pretty formidable challenge.
Aging is a lot more complex than one molecule breaking down (we have built-in DNA repair equipment), and most of the mechanisms are still unknown, so it's hard to say.
Only if you're not the highlander!
THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!!!!
.....oh, also, putin is not the highlander.
There was a Lemmy post about Telomir Pharmaceuticals a week or so ago, they're developing a drug that's supposed to regenerate telomeres and it was showing decent results in canine trials. So at least the telomere shortening issue in DNA aging has a possibility of being addressed in the medium-term if things continue to go well. https://www.benzinga.com/partner/biotech/24/09/40707135/telomir-pharmaceuticals-nasdaq-telo-featured-in-local-abc-exclusive-showing-positive-outcomes-of-
By telomere length humans should live to about 120, but we don't. There are other problems to solve before telomeres matter
It's also not gonna be one bottleneck. All kinds of different issues.
Somewhere, in some pathetic bunker, Putin is having terrible diarrhea day after day while taking this so-called treatment.
Please enjoy that thought while you continue doom scrolling.
Ahh the old philosophical question:
“Would you take eternal life if it basically involved sitting on the toilet shitting your guts out all day every day?”
Haha why do you say that? Something I missed?
Certain "cures" don't sit well with your gut, and it's a pleasant image, so that's my thought after hearing he's getting treated for age.
Then stop war in Ukraine and fund whatever the fuck you want.
Which Putin? This newest one is the worst replacement they've gotten yet. Can't even do the voice and the surgery scars did not heal well.

I am wondering whether any analysts at the CIA or similar agencies picked up on this years ago in his psychological profile (i.e., the narcissism, paranoia, germophobia, lack of a succession plan, and such) and started making plans. Perhaps there’s a biotech startup in, say, Serbia or somewhere, funded in 2007 with opaquely sourced seed money, “researching” “cellular de-aging” or something, with convincingly faked tests giving just enough promise. The research is fake, of course, and the business is meant as bait to be acquired by a Kremlin entity or one of Putin’s human-wallet oligarchs, at which point Putin’s fate is in the hands of whatever spooks are controlling it.
Luckily im not looking to live forever in a world with folks like putin in it.
It saves on the cloning process
Once a chinese leader took quicksilver for that. Putin should try that too. ASAP.
