If you limit your examples to health declines/old age, then - yes. My point is that the term "aging" doesn't always relate to the old and infirm.
When my three-year-old nephew ages ten years I would hardly agree that means he's more likely to die, just the opposite. A thirteen-year-old is significantly more fit for survival.
