Covid-19

Lots of things in this thread are making this much more complicated then I think it needs to be. Bottom line is that age is the number one predictor of mortality for this virus.

AGE
DEATH RATE
confirmed cases

80+ years old
21.9%

70-79 years old
8.0%
60-69 years old
3.6%
50-59 years old
1.3%
40-49 years old
0.4%
30-39 years old
0.2%
20-29 years old
0.2%
10-19 years old
0.2%
0-9 years old
no fatalities

There's a multiplier that can be added based on comorbidities oh, but these percentages give you the bottom line.

THIS is great info and I believe puts things in perspective. Thank you.
