I live in Carroll County, GA, about 35 miles west of Atlanta. The state of GA publishes the age, sex and whether or not there were underlying conditions for every one of the 139 deaths in GA (as of yesterday). I ran a spreadsheet on this data and discovered the following:
Average age at death was 69.8 years.
About 60% male, 40% female.
Of the 139 deaths, 95 had underlying conditions, 4 had no underlying conditions, and 44 were "unknown".
How about your state?
It sounds like it cuts everyone’s normal life expectancy by an average of a handful of years, but not by 20 - 40 years.
Very interesting. Thank you for posting this.
I recall when Joe Diffie sadly passed away Sunday, people here mentioned that he was another country singer who had dealt with alcohol/drug abuse problems. And that likely made him that much weaker and vulnerable to the virus and it’s potential to be fatal.
“Average age at death was 69.8 years”
Well, that’s comforting. I’m 68.7 years old.
Be safe my friend!!!
Not to me. I’m 69.96 years old (birthday: April 16).
I don’t expect to get it, but if I do it will probably be fatal because I have underlying conditions.
If you also note, the average mortality rate hovers around 3.2-3.4% of known cases with about 30% hospitalized....
That’s the problem, plenty of people likely got it mild and didn’t realize it was anything but a cold.
Don’t delay in filling out those organ donor cards!
“Larimer county Colorado says 1 death while the state reports 4. They are cooking the books..”
I know it’s not fashionable to say so, but mistakes are still more common than conspiracies, despite what some people think.

Age Data of Overall Deceased:
Average Age 71.3 years
Median Age: 73 years
Age Range: 20-107 years
LOL...even MORE comfort from my FRiends.
Interesting. Are they listing “recovered” in the data you can see?
I think the demographics of recovered would be meaningful, as well. Especially when the “recovered” would only count those who TESTED positive, and not county the many who may have had it, recovered, but did not get tested.
At this age, a “handful of years” is precious. I do not want my life being cut short by any amount of time by selfish idiots who think they are immortal and smarter than everyone else.
I wouldn’t be surprised if 99% of all of these victims had underlying conditions or risk factors. Younger drug abusers, for example, may have never been diagnosed with an underlying condition, but are nonetheless unhealthy and at risk.
Eventually people will get the truth from independent news sources or first amendment auditors.
