Definitely an interesting problem though.
You'd probably want to gather life expectancy rates for individuals once they reached five years of age (since infant mortality necessarily lowers life expectancy but after a cliff people who make it tend to live longer than the average with a bunch of 0s, 1s, and 2s in it) for each country in question.
Then you'd need stats for the age of the dead in each country which I guess you don't really have in most cases since the deaths aren't aggregated anywhere since they haven't been attributed to COVID.
Thanks to the Economist for publishing their model. Would be neat to see more stuff like this. I haven't delved too deeply into the code (several 1000 line scripts which would take some sussing out) but it's nice people will have real world projects they can delve into.
