As you can see, deaths in italy are heavily skewed to old people

Not given in this data source, but i read on a reddit sub that, underlying this, a vast majority of deaths were people with critical conditions.

As if mostly, the dead are people who were already likely to die at their next infection.

Suggestion is most of these would be dead if the got the flu, or a severe cold, or any othe number of illness.

Those #s need to be normalized to be per capita.

Funny how closely they are tied to normal mortality tables.

Hey, ...if I was a conspiracy nut, I swear that there might be some risk that a person might be wrongly classified into the Covid column from something else...

Has a release of national death rates been revealed for last year, this year, to see if the total number of deaths this year to last are any different....AT ALL?

Java has all sorts of functions and apps built upon it.

Pandemic statistics in the politically correct era. Why are not the race, underlying medical conditions, habits, medications taken being released? No doubt elderly people are very susceptible to develop serious disease or die from this novel coronavirus. But just who are the people under 60 that are becoming seriously ill and dying from this virus. As usual the devil is in the details. Definitely would not fit the political narrative if the young people who become seriously ill of die turn out to be Asian, AIDS patients, marijuana smokers, drug users, alcoholics etc. The CDC and WHO are being very circumspect on how known data is tabulated and released.

In your defense I will say that a link to some data is welcome.

Of course it is from 2018, but still interesting.

Italy does have a large cohort of oldsters.

That probably says there is a lotta good in the local environments.

This article deals with all the questions I have about reporting of this virus and speaks to the one you brought up. Overall the supposed information seems too speculative and too easily adapted to political motives.

How deadly is the coronavirus? It’s still far from clear

For a single-payer medical system, the virus epidemic may be just the thing to lighten the medical load on the system by eliminating those who have the most demand. This is one element of single-payer that I am most against.

Yep, it’s what they don’t tell you that is important.

Interesting that it doesn’t kill as many people who are over 90, as the slightly younger ones.

Such racial statistics would alert those in certain racial communities to become more careful. Why would a government hide that information from those most vulnerable unless they want that sector to be killed off?

Some interesting reading here:

Investigating the impact of influenza on excess mortality in all ages in Italy during recent seasons (2013/14–2016/17 seasons)

Highlights

• In the winter seasons from 2013/14 to 2016/17, an estimated average of 5,290,000 ILI cases occurred in Italy, corresponding to an incidence of 9%.

• More than 68,000 deaths attributable to flu epidemics were estimated in the study period.

• Italy showed a higher influenza attributable excess mortality compared to other European countries. especially in the elderly.

Probably because there aren’t as many people over 90. They are already dead.
