Japan has a pretty good health-care system, and they try to focus on preventative care as well. When you turn 60, you're invited to come to City Hall for a check-up, and to be assigned a counselor. This person checks on you every couple of months to see if you're maintaining the health and diet regimen you agreed to at the first meeting. Also at the City Hall health desk are fliers featuring the City Hunter characters, warning you of the danger of Shingles if you're in the 30 to 57 age range.
