Average age of “Covid death” is greater than the average life expectancy. The average age of a “Covid death” in the UK is 82.5 years. In Italy it’s 86. Germany, 83. Switzerland, 86. Canada, 86. The US, 78, Australia, 82.

In almost all cases the median age of a “Covid death” is higher than the national life expectancy.

As such, for most of the world, the “pandemic” has had little-to-no impact on life expectancy. Contrast this with the Spanish flu, which saw a 28% drop in life expectancy in the US in just over a year.

While this story directly attributes a fatality with Covid, I continue to be fascinated by the absolute focus on mortality for Covid. There are substantial financial costs and limited resource consumption associated with treating Covid morbidities.

I’ve been saying for a while that Covid adds about two years to the average lifespan... ;-)
