singapore has a special factor that you didnt mention.
the very large majority of their cases were in foreign worker dorms. almost none of these workers are over 40, and are generally in good health.
so the demographics are very different.
- Barrin92 6y ago>so the demographics are very different. yeah sure but that's the point. the demographics in much of the world are more favourable. The median age in Nigeria is 18 years, on the African continent 20. Much of Asia is relatively young as well. It's the Western places who are the outlier.
- nopzor 6y agoyou’re missing my point. singapore has a more elderly population than the usa. the covid outbreak was largely in foreign worker forms which have a much lower average age than the rest of singapore. singapore is not nigeria. it’s quite an elderly society.
