To what degree does early life development impact the trajectory of late life aging? Plenty of evidence suggests a connection, much of it from epidemiological studies that, unfortunately, given little insight into possible mechanisms. Of other work, applying reliability theory to aging can only fit the observed mortality data if we are born with a non-zero level of damage. Further, early exposure to cytomegalovirus, a persistent infection that is corrosive of immune function over the long term, may explain links between socioeconomic status in childhood and pace of late life a…
