You’re the one that implied the one was equal to the other. Ie, troop == general population.

‘Troop’ are more likely to be in the ‘asymptomatic’/uninfected age demographic.

Unless you think DOD is signing up senior citizens and the middle aged?

Wait. What? I'm not doing that. Dr. Gregory Wolff in Science magazine is doing that.

If you want to compare it to the elderly, it would stand to reason the percentage is even lower.

I didn't write the piece. I'm just picking it apart. Coronaviruses don't know how old their hosts are.

This is not a matter of severity, it's a matter of who is infected with it.

If the flu shot made military personnel MORE vulnerable, then MORE military personnel would get infected.
