If someone is an "identity freak", they need to condition the distribution on "person X is alive" (where "X" -- the person of interest). And now the question is whether the average health deteriorates "as time goes to infinity" -- it probably deteriorates to some minimum livable floor and then bounces up once we cross singularity. (I'm not an "identity freak" BTW.)

To explore some possibilities, have a look at http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5389450/1/The-Finale-of-the-Ultimate-Meta-Mega-Crossover -- where MWI is generalized to what I call "Universal Distribution Metaphysics".
