As of Jan. 14, 2021, the Case Fatality Rate (CFR) — which is the percentage of Covid-19 deaths in the U.S. out of the total number of cases — is 1.33%, and which includes all people of all ages and conditions. Based on CDC statistics from between the beginning of January 2020 until Jan. 14, 2021,the CFR for those aged 0-17 calculates (Y is what % of X) to 0.01%; and for those aged 18-29 the CFR is 0.05%; for ages 30-39 it is 0.15%; for ages 40-49 it is 0.4%; for ages 50-64 it is 1.37%; but for the ages of 65-74 it rises to 4.74%; and for the combined ages of 75 to 84 then it leaps to 11.27%; and all those who are 85 and older then it jumps to 23.25%. CDC on 12/15/21.
Therefore the most dramatic increase is 75 and above which must be taken into account when determining the lethality of Covid-19 to the general population and restrictions placed upon it, and how to best protect the most vulnerable while not fostering the comorbidities that are behind most Covid-19 deaths but combating them. And Christian spiritual decline (beginning with the church).

Estimated Infection Fatality Rate (IFR: est. total infections and deaths) from February 2020 to September 2021: | ||||
All (9-21) | 921,000 est. deaths | 146.6 Million est. cases | 0.63% | |

Therefore based upon statistics on those aged 0-49 who were tested as being infected with Covid-19 and judged as having died due to it, then the CFR is 0.14% while for 0-64 .it is 0.18%. In contrast, for those ages 75 and up the CFR rises to over 26%. For a comparison, the odds of dying in a motor vehicle accident are calculated to be 1 in 107 (0.93%) and your chances of getting into a motor vehicle accident are one in 366 (0.27%) for every 1,000 miles driven. And thus despite headlines of exceptions, for the young (and fit and healthy) the odds of dying from Covid-19 are very minimal.
That is, unless you are “quarantined” in the womb. since as the CDC reports, "in 2019, the abortion ratio was 195 abortions per 1,000 live births,” which means that the “pregnancy fatality rate” (PFR) is19.5% (excluding spontaneous miscarriages among known pregnancies which are estimated to average approx. 15%). Thus to impose long-term severe restrictions and requirements in the interest of saving lives (yet which restrictions have their own deleterious effects) due to an infectious somewhat preventable disease, while actually fostering the death of the most vulnerable who are safely “quarantined” in the womb of their mother — as well as doing comparatively little to combat the leading Covid-19 comorbidities — is irrationally inconsistent.
This is indeed what they ae pushing for. Open your eyes.
Indeed, Australia style. See my take on extended goals. Which simply supports what I said. You are not going to provide a substantive defense against the arguments for such by invoking the likes of sensationalist tabloids. You counter them with the ignored data from sources they sanction, along with reputable ones of integrity they may not. Likewise, while the Left generally respects John Hopkins, I can give them this Transgender Surgery Isn't the Solution from one of their own. Thsnk God a few still have some sense of morality.
Your naivety is astounding. Either that or you do not pay attention to reality. You cannot convince these people we are fighting with facts, for that is exactly what they want you to do, so they can just ignore them or discount them. They are not interested in facts, and that is the fact you seem to just ignore. Wake up.
Rather, my means is not naivety, for instead it is such recourse as defending specious sources with its false headlines that plays into the oppositions hands, while using such as sources normally sanctioned by the opposition can at least put them to silence, which I have often done by the grace of God - even if not convincing them which is not an absolute necessity versus exposing their falsehoods.
. When making an argument, we need to examine if and how it could be countered, and deal with objections with valid substantiation if indeed our argument is sound. Faced with recalcitrant opposition, the Lord Jesus Himself invoked Scripture, the authority of which was accepted by the opposition, and thereby put them to silence, and exposed them as erroneous.
However, there does come a point in which such repeatedly dismiss soundly reasoned and substantiated arguments, and thus they can be left to their chosen delusions.
Grace and peace thru Jesus the Lord.
