People born in the 1930s are over 90 years old, and those born in the 1940s are over 80 years old. This means that in the next decade, 147 million elderly people will pass away, which is more than the combined population of several European countries. This data is truly terrifying. With the current capacity of public elderly care, it is impossible to support so many elderly people in living a dignified life. While the elderly in big cities still receive some attention, those in rural areas are essentially left unattended, with their children working away from home and only animals for company.
