The Young...

    



Number of deaths From Covid-19 since the start in Feb.2020.
Total deaths from COVID-19     557,486
0-17 years                      277
18-29 years                    2,097
30-39 years                   6,089
40-49 years                  16,507
50-64 years                  85,450
65-74 years                  123,309
75-84 years                 154,212
85 years and older     169,545  



Although it is clear that infection severity increases substantially with age, there remain key unanswered questions with regard to the consistency of mortality patterns across countries. 

Underlying heterogeneities in the age structure of the population or in the prevalence of comorbidities can contribute to differences in the levels of observed COVID-19-associated fatalities.

In addition, when looking at the total number of COVID-19-associated deaths, the level of transmission among the general population can be difficult to disentangle from large outbreaks in vulnerable populations such as those living in nursing homes and other long-term care settings. 

From these stats provided, it is obvious that the Covid Vaccine is essential to some more than others.

Comments:
1- From the provided stat, Ages 39 and below are less vulnerable with this Covid Viruse than those who are older.
2- Certain Comorbidities may expose various ages to the disease more than others. Accordingly, your doctor, and not the politicians, ought to evaluate your benefits and your risk.
3- All Covid Vaccines, Pfizer, Moderna, and J&J are approved "Under Emergency Use Only." This is different than other vaccines and should be treated as such.
4- So much we don't know about the disease and the vaccines.

Just a thought.
