From:

In countries where mask-wearing is merely an uncomfortable inconvenience, and does not attract the visceral irrationality that it does in much of the West, non-mask-wearing is associated in poorer countries with poverty, ignorance and supply-chain problems; in richer ones, with mental illness of the more antisocial kinds, or being an antisocial foreigner with entitlement issues.

The zoledronate information sounds very promising, especially in respect of extending "healthspan". Most countries with shorter lifespans could probably already extend them with basic public health interventions.
