Cases? No big deal. What *is* a big deal is people who are in bad health because of life choices that affect health. Not everyone in bad health is to blame, some are struck with serious issues to no fault of their own... But if people would eat right, exercise, have a life that included interactions with people on a daily basis (online doesn't count) then these #s would fall thru the floor. That's my take from details given on covid deaths locally
Agree? Disagree?

Totally disagree.
11 pre-existing comorbidities—cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, diabetes, congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, chronic liver disease, cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, and HIV/AIDS—were included in the meta-analysis.
Are covid patients who have.....
1)-diabetes
2)-cardiovascular diseases
3)-chronic kidney disease
4)-asthma
5)-chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,
The result of poor life style choices?
Not wearing masks, not social distancing,...are.
Do you think those damn old crotchety seniors are worth medical treatment?
Or even worth saving? Hell, they're gonna kick the bucket soon!
Yes, many of these patients worsen their condition by stupidity, but is their lack of discipline deserving a death sentence? Genetics is the initial trigger for these conditions. Instead of facing facts, you are misunderstanding and exaggerating what people have control over, and denying what the do.
Public health solutions do have possibilities to change how many get infected, get hospitalized, and die.
