As record covid deaths happen. Smooth....Put on a mask, put the bible down, that's a personal matter, and we have a good lt governor.
Death rate is still less than 1% (.98%).
Eastern Idaho Public Health said the Bonneville County deaths were two males in their 70s,
the Lemhi County death was a male in his 60s and the Madison County death was a female
in her 80s. The Bingham County death was a male in his 60s, according to Southeastern
Idaho Public Health.
Demographic information posted by the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare indicates
the remaining deaths included one person in their 40s, one person in their 60s, two people
in their 70s and the rest were 80 or older.
Let's review:
AGE #DEAD
------ -----------
0-9 0
10-19
0
20-29 0
30-39 0
40-49 1
50-59 0
60-69 3
70-79 4
80-89+ 10
----------------------------
TOTAL 18
No mention of underlying health condition or chronic problems. 55,230 confirmed cases, plus 7,777 suspected cases. An estimated 29,195 have recovered...so far.
COVID-19 is not a death sentence. If COVID-19 did not exist, how many of these people would be dead anyway just from old age or other health problems or diseases? Someone over 80 with the regular flu would be at risk of dying, too. Many develop pneumonia after contracting the flu. in short, what's the statistical death rate of people in those age groups from non-COVID-related causes? Is COVID driving that rate up, or is it merely replacing what would have killed them anyway?
Death is a part of life. Nobody knows when or how it'll happen, but it will inevitably happen to us all.
Even OMIGOD, who thinks technology will grant him life everlasting.
