I recommend (re-)reading the article MTinetti & Terri Fried wrote more than 20 years ago (2004): The End of the Disease Era ( https://www.amjmed.com/article/S0002-9343(03)00666-1/abstract )

Just seen another paper published on oral #frailty . I am wondering when we will get to a "feet frailty", a "digestive frailty", or a "friendship frailty"... 😆
