That's not a fair comparison. Most covid deaths are from those already past the average life expectancy. There's a very good chance they were going to die soon

That's not a fair comparison. Most covid deaths are from those already past the average life expectancy. There's a very good chance they were going to die soon anyways. Not to mention you have to account for cancer patient + covid, etc.

- MisterBastahrd 5y agoIt's completely fair. There's always a cause of death, and averages aren't indicative of individual cases. If an old person gets shot by a gun tomorrow, we don't chalk that up as "well, they had their time."
