I've posted this before, but too many people have it in their head that just because someone is old they will die from this.
A healthy 80 year old suffering from no major underlying conditions (other than being old) will likely handle this virus better than an obese 60 year old smoker.
It's all about the underlying conditions. Old people just typically have more underlying conditions, which is why they're dying at a higher rate.
