27.64% of 64 and younger that get the virus die?

27.64% of all deaths in the US for 64 and younger are virus deaths?

27.64% of the population 64 and younger at some point will die of the virus?

More than wearing masks are necessary. Besides if wearing masks were no big deal why are you "economy at all costs" fanatics bitching and trying to "liberate" states blocking traffic and carrying automatic weapons to make sure it's clear to we commies?
Oh...so you agree then with the premise I made last week that masks in public only serve as symbols of fear?

What about masks and gloves?

P.S. Your second paragraph is totally off-the-charts incoherent.

I have.

One more time. Out of all the US population of covid-19 infections who have died,, 27.6% are 64 and younger.

Too bad that's not what you wrote the first time around.

Donald Trump, is that you? Or maybe you're Joe Biden?

Two others who say some really stupid shit at times.

At least Biden has an excuse...he's cognitively impaired. You might want to get checked out once the lockdowns end.

You will notice I started with "The current age distribution"

Which age distribution do you think I was referring to on a thread about covid-19? In a tread where we are discussing your idea of quarantining the elderly age group only from that disease?
People having heart attacks listening to Rush Limpbag?
Are you snorting clorox?

That not what your original post said. Here it is: 27.64% of the U.S population 64 and younger dies from covid-19.

What you meant and what you wrote are 2 different things.

Looking at the stats you presented it shows that under 5% of those who died without an underlying condition.

People under 65 account for approximately 84% of the US population and very few of the deaths in that age group are solely attributed to Covid-19.

As I just told PA I clearly was specifying

.... discussing quarantining only the elderly.

The rest of my stats stand. As of now there are 52,948 deaths.
27.64% of that is


14,635 people 64 and younger have died.


Got it? It is a rather substantial number

Saying "The current age distribution as of April 16, shows....

27.64% of the U.S population 64 and younger dies from covid-19." isn't clear about anything.

As for your substantial number, very few represent healthy people who died from the virus.

And how many of those deaths were caused by covid-19?

P.S. I'm not asking you how many of those fatalities died with covid-19. There is a difference.

How many were not?

And if you have an answer, hopefully before you pull it out of your butt, you will disinfect it.

Wash it in Lysol or shine an UV light on it. After you remove it, that is.

NYC murder spike

Apparently killers in NYC are not heeding the lockdown.

Wear a mask or not wear a mask, might not be the question to ask.

In review is how to better act when faced with this again because it will be too costly to go it this way again. This was predicted over ten years ago and discounted until it happened. To me it is very likely a more deadly bird flu or some other variation will strike the world in our lifetime, will we handle it just as badly or will we learn from this event? It is very obvious to me that we have to destroy China, be ready for the next event, then sell those communist bastards masks for $8 each.
