Isn't Alzheimer manifesting itself at an old age? Maybe taxi and ambulance drivers aren't too old? Maybe we find the same if we analyze jet fighter pilots?
Here, ambulance drivers are often ex-firefighters and vice versa, and both tend to be in good physical shape. Ship and airliner captains on the other hand are often older and in less than stellar physical condition.
My hypothesis is that it's either age, physical condition or both.
