You’re right that death isn’t a disease, it’s an effect of disease. But aging itself is clearly a disease. When you get old, it’s not like you’re perfectly fine until you’re age 80, and then you get struck down by a random sickness. The body itself degrades over time and loses various functions, like Lou Gehrig’s disease.
