as of 8/21/2020, there have been 3001 covid deaths in Indiana.
12 of those covid deaths in Indiana to date were under 30 yrs old.
33 covid deaths in Indiana under 40 yrs old.
84 total covid deaths under 50 yrs old.
(never see that on the news, do you).
what the other heath factors were of those people, i know not.
the last thing we need to do is factor in actual hard data in our strategy to deal with this.
one size fits all is a much smarter strategy, especially when herd immunity, either by infection or vaccine, may be the only way out.
just because almost half the population is relatively immune to covid killing them, doesn't mean that we should at least consider factoring in that totally insignificant piece of worthless trivia into any strategy on dealing with covid, a disease that we see herd immunity by infection or vaccine as our overwhelmingly most likely way out.
surely we wouldn't rethink how nursing homes were handled, just because of things we know now that we didn't know then.
why would we ever do that?????? rethinking is for pussies who don't have the fortitude to stay intractable.
only total idiots base their strategy on known data, and much better to stick with the plan devised before we had any data, and not alter it just because we now have this data..
on a side note, Indianapolis alone has had over 110 murders so far this yr, and i'm willing to bet way more than 12 of them were people under 30, and way more than 33 were people under 40.
statistically, anyone in Indiana under 50 yrs old is more likely to be murdered than die of covid, but we should never factor in actual data when developing plans on how to best deal with this..
no idea what i was thinking on that "2 universes" insanity i was babbling about.
those thinking my numbers are off, if incorrect i hope to be corrected, as this isn't something we need false data on.
