Al: If we reach biological immortality through nanotechnology (as it is envisioned today, at least), we would be immune to all illnesses too. In fact, immunity to illnesses would come way before biological immortality proper, as the "easiest" way to use nanotechnology would be to have nanobots act as white cells: programed with the DNA pattern of the body, they would destroy everything that is not it. Of course, such nanobots would have to be disactivated should a transplantation be required (unless we've learnt how to clone body parts, too, or unless whole bodies are cultivated to serve as "spare parts" ressources, but there comes the moral dilemna) since we would still be prone to accidents. Including deadly accidents, which would certainly bring some of the new immortals to live very paranoid lives, sheltered in self-designed prisons.
