    How does one determine the long term effects of a Viral infection that has only been in existence for about a year?

    Wait a minute, that doesn't matter but it sure sounds good let me cut and paste it.

    How can the average covid age of death be 80 when the average life span is 78?

    63.7% of stats are fabricated.

    Only taking in to account C19 deaths.
    The average age death of non-C19 infected person has no relevance.

    There is very little consensus amongst doctors in regards to C-19. So yes, many of them are wrong. Remains to be seen which ones are wrong, but my money is on the attention whore guy who can't keep his mug off the cover of any magazine or Media talking head show that comes around sniffing his stethoscope...Considering he changes his tune about as much as Jill Biden changes diapers.

    I get that but I was using that as a barometer as which to measure what I believe are bs stats. And I cant mathematically fathom how the average age of covid death is 80.

    I can, because of New York and Michigan early on with Nursey homes deaths and the fact we sent all the school kids home(and college). So what the unknown what will happen when we send the kids back to school.

    The issue here in America is the community spread we have going on, so we don't have enough data to know what the real risk is for sending kids back. That is my issue.

    Stats mean nothing to the man that drowns in a river with an average depth of 1.5'.

    Here's a look at the county I live in. It's pretty easy to see how the average age of C19 deaths skews to the older ranges.

    To date, we've had 1 death in the 40-49 range and zero under 40. 77% of our deaths are people in long-term care facilities.

    Age stats are useless without legitimate numbers of factual Covid-19 deaths. IL and many other places have already stated that they include deaths from other causes as Covid-19 deaths if the victim had or was suspected to have Covid-19, regardless of symptoms.

    Just as the models predicted more deaths in the US as we have had world wide, we can't rely on the death tallies out there now.

    Garbage in equals garbage out.
