You're right to a point, but don't just dismiss these deaths as non-events. Covid killed, yes killed as in "filled up the lungs", of my step mother, my aunt, my first cousin, and at least three friends that all had other issues. It might be true that had they all been 30 and healthy, they would have survived, but they weren't and they are now dead. I know one thing for sure that had this stuff never escaped from Wuhan, China, all of them would be alive today. None of them were at death's door before the virus. What do you tell you're mom? "Hey, you're over 80 and have controlled diabetes so it sux to be you?"
You tell her to stay away from peoples and take precautions. Basically to self quarantine, anyone with 'other' issues. Which is what should have happened from the get go.[/quote]
Might be hard to do for elderly in nursing homes, assisted living or retirement communities .[/quote]
Other than in Cuomo Land and a few other places most 'facilities' got a fairly good grip on things quickly and kept the Rona out. Again: quarantine those that NEED to be, not the whole damned country!
