Original Message Before penicillin the average life expectancy was around 35-40 years, that's when most people's teeth started to rot and caused a deadly infection.

Anytime you have had an infection you could not shake, a bad injury, or situation that required the ER, chances are, 300 years ago it would have killed you.

I think it's about a dozen times in my life, from the croop when I was 10 months old, shattering my right elbow in 1994, and the last one was a bad sinus infection.
