Few?......I guess that would depend on what you considered a few!

Anyone of any age can die from this killer virus. The death toll is far from over I am thinking! There was a 25 year old athlete perfect condition passed. He may have had underlying circumstances no one knew about. All the same he did appear to be in good health before and very active in sports.

Few would be well below half.

Look at it this way, according to the CDC, in the US this year for people 65 and older, covid 19 deaths make up just 2 percent of all deaths.

.0015 Percent of the population 65 and older have died of covid 19.

How much luck does it take to be in the 999845 out of a million?

I read somewhere that most cases of the covid-19 were people between 20-64 which really surprised me..

I think that will change at least here in canada where it has hit the old folks homes, and will go right through the building. I know of one place already here in halifax with 60 cases. 28 staff and 32 residents, they have them on one floor so far, that could change as the count goes up which I expect it will.

Why would it surprise you that the people in public would get sick. How many died?

.000145 Percent of 15 to 65 year olds have died due to covid 19.

In other words out of a million, 999985 people have not died, just 15 out of a million have died.

Gotta be very unlucky to die.

A bigger percentage of people between ages of 20-64 were infected. As I said in my previous post that is going to change.

You see at first they were saying mostly the elderly would die, turns out that is not the case so far, but like I said now that it has gotten inside the old age homes that is going to change again.

@Very-Rusty

You do know that getting sick and actually being killed are two different things.

NO, but thanks for letting me know that valuable information.

Probably another 9 months or so.

Probably you have no idea like the rest of us.

Good, now look at these numbers

54 and younger 996 deaths
55 and older 10360 deaths

Many more deaths are coming from the elderly population, even though many more of the sick people are younger.

Of course no one knows, nobody can put a time limit on it.

In my opinion I think we might even be looking at well over a year if not a couple years.

You probably shouldn't be doing stats until it is all over.......I don't think we are even half way there. And the younger ones die as well as the older ones do. Just hope you are one the people left standing when it is all over.

Did you hear about the 106 year old man that had it and recovered?

@Very-Rusty

You think that the ratios are going to change much?

Not surprised about the 106 year old, most people live in all age groups.

A lot of doctors and nurses would challenge those stats.

I concur.
Also something which hasn't been mentioned many Doctors and Nurses have died!!!

They are official CDC stats.
