One person was very elderly and in a nursing home where the disease spread. They are old people death camps. Tens of thousands of elderly died in nursing homes in my state.
Another person I used to work with. In their fifties. I don’t know when they went to the hospital
A neighbor who was in his seventies and waited a week to go to the hospital.
A friend’s parent whom I don’t know the particulars about.
A relative by marriage in their 60s who did not go to the hostpital right away
All these deaths are unneccessary. Early treatment with antivirals is going to cure almost everybody. Prophylactics can cut down the spread and protect at risk people. Conservatives could be pushing for these drugs but instead they are arguing that covid doesn’t exist. Or like joshafool, that it doesn’t matter if old people die 5 or 10 years early alone in a hospital broom closet.
