  Probably, but depends what it says on the box. =)

  I guess that rather depends on what the cure was!
  
  Actually, I’m not really sure that being old is something that is curable – instead, you are trying to cure the effects of being old, and we can already do a lot of that.
  
  People nowadays live much longer than they used to, because we have managed to cure (or at least find ways to treat) the effects of ageing.
