Neither does covid you imbecile. Show me the stats where covid has a 20-30% fatality rate. Even in the wildly skewed stats the cdc released its not more than 7-10.

> * Figures are based on 2,449 cases of COVID-19 with known age. Lower bound of range = number of persons who died among total in age group; upper bound of range = number of persons who died among total in age group with known death.
No sources readily available either. Their ‘upper bound’ is a bunch of nonsense and not an actual mortality stat as they chose only groups with deaths. Its also for those above 85, an age group where a strong gust of wind can kill you.
Okay lazybones heres a regression of cfr by age drawn from multiple studies from multiple countries of death and seroprevalence by age group.

This is seroprevalence not some PCR case rate
My dad is close to 85, he does everything — drives, walks his dog, plays with the kids, shops, takes care of himself. He is not going to keel over from a gust of wind. If he gets covid and dies this year it will be because covid killed him, not because he was on death’s doorstep. He could easily live into his 90s. His dad died at 98.
