Instead of taking shots at people on HN, write a detailed document and add a link - that would be useful.
But I'm not going to debate inaccurate corona statistics with a pedant on HN.
The mortality rate for young people is less than 1% - low for a pandemic. Ebola is 50% and up, and recurs every other year.

For people who actually get acutely sick from corona. I agree the 5% or so of people who get acutely ill will have a shortened lifespan, but there's no data for the other 95%.
