> Results: The study projects that the average person would suffer 0.205 YLL due to psychosocial consequence of COVID-19 mitigation measures. However, this loss would be entirely borne by 2.1% of the population, who will suffer an average 9.79 YLL. Doing the math for the US, based on a population estimate of 330 million: 0.205 * 330million = 68,265,000 years of life lost based on the data lost based on the data from this study. 68,265,000 / 78.6 years (Average life expectancy of the US [0]) = 866,511 lifetimes lost. IE, the same impact as this many 1 day old babies dying. 68,265,000 / 38.2 year (Median age of US resident [1]) = 1,787,041. IE, the same impact as this many median age residents dying.
