I suspect this is the same in other countries. 25-44 year olds don't usually die (typical mortality is approx 0.1%), so +25% represents a relatively small numb

- antibuddy 5y agoAt least in Germany[0] and Sweden I found nothing like that.

- username90 5y agoUSA is an outlier on this. You can compare with Italy for example: https://www.statista.com/statistics/1191568/reported-deaths-from-covid-by-age-us/ https://www.statista.com/statistics/1191568/reported-deaths-... https://www.statista.com/statistics/1105061/coronavirus-deaths-by-region-in-italy/ https://www.statista.com/statistics/1105061/coronavirus-deat... USA has 30 times the deaths among 30-39 year olds but only 5.5 times the population. It isn't just Italy, almost every other country has a distribution similar to Italy.
- gremlinsinc 5y agoItaly has a huge older population and a lot more lax on cigarettes... older smokers = raised chances of death... USA on the other hand has excess obesity across all metrics (I'm one), so if it hit younger ages harder here it's probably due to obesity epidemic raising death chances.
