They're slowing dying. The statistics say so; the real-life evidence supports it.

I visit my folks in Perth at least once a year, staying on average a few weeks at a time. They are situated 100m from the main road. Before 2019, we could hear the traffic getting heavier and noisier as Perth grew. But since the state border reopened from Covid, I hear an Ambulance siren on the main road, during every day of my stay. There was nothing like this prior to 2019.

I tried to look for ambulance data in WA, but got a screen, “for authorised researchers only”. I did manage to find some ambulance data from NSW. In 2022, Ambulance NSW recorded they picked up 16% more cardiac patients than they did in the prior 5 years. But in 2023, 2024, they did not publish any cardiac data.
