The dilemma of rejuvenation: Will we be forced to use it?

Some people worry that if rejuvenation is available, they may be forced to use it

Some people worry that if rejuvenation biotechnology becomes available, they will be forced to use the technology.

Could rejuvenation be imposed?

Imagine that you go to the doctor for a routine checkup on a pleasant day in the near future. You are happy and everything is going well. The doctor does not find anything wrong with you but, to reduce your risk of contracting diseases that affect people your age, she suggests that you undergo senolytic therapy. It is a safe treatment with no adverse effects. It is administered through injections and is either subsidised by the state or is otherwise affordable. What are your odds of refusing a doctor’s prescription to take a risk and getting sick rather than taking the medication prescribed by the doctor?
