No it doesn't. That is just your complete misunderstanding of evolution rearing its ignorant head.
Evolution is only concerned with reproductive success. Survival of species is what is important, not survival of individuals.
The only way our 'bad design' would threaten our existence as a species, if it threatened our species' reproductive success. All we have to do is survive into viable reproductive age, not old age.
