This is useful. However, the stats are international in nature and may not reflect the actual odds in your particular area.

Sorry, I reached peak COVID about two weeks ago. I can’t read one more thing about. Free Republic has gone completely “viral”.

The elderly are the most likely to die from a Novel Coronavirus infection but they are also the easiest to protect since most don’t need to interact with other people daily.

If a person has one or more of the risk factors they are in the 14% risk no matter their age.

Many of our elderly live in single family homes and have their own transportation.

It is easier for them to safeguard themselves than urban Italian elderly.

“Free Republic has gone completely ‘viral’.”

The problem is going to hit the travel industry and restaurant industry hard.

Many school systems may have to close down, and less to protect the children, who would only get a mild to severe “cold”, than to protect their older relatives.
