Disclaimer: I do not wish people to suffer from coronavirus or die from it, but at least, the same people who are the most vulnerable have the least to lose.

Let's assume that someone dies at age 91 from coronavirus instead of 94 due to heart failure, missing out on around three years.

What exactly do they miss out on?

Three years of misery, pain, disability and dependence.
Think about it: How is daily life at that age? Not so nice, to put it politely.


Again, I do not wish anyone to die from coronavirus, but maybe it helps some people to know that the elderly people who died from corona virus have not lost much.

If some 16-year-old teen dies from a motorbike accident, he has lost alot. But not the 9X year old who died a few years of misery earlier.

Also you have to think that the majority of people who are actually being tested are the ones going to the hospitals. People who are mildly sick probably won't get tests. And those who are sick enough to go to the hospital probably have compromised systems already, like old people and dirty savages.
