I know 8 people infected, 2 of whom died.
under 70: 5 infected, 1 died.
over 70: 3 infected, 1 died.

Are you implying that its OK if somebody over 70 dies? How do you know they wouldn’t have lived 15 more years?

I think that some creepers think that anyone who contracted Corona virus is worse than Osama bin laden.

Obliterating the United States economy, leaving it in smoldering ruins (and this is what we allowed to happen) to extend the lives of 70-years olds doesn't make any sense.

Not to me, anyways.

No, he's implying, correctly, that the lives of the many should not be ruined to protect the very few.

“Are you implying that its OK if somebody over 70 dies?”

It’s recognition of the God-created cycle of life.

On the average the older you are the more fragile your body becomes, and the older you are the less you can complain about that fragility.
