What’s the average age of the 57 deaths? What is the youngest?

They’re mostly elderly.

I haven’t seen one listed. But by the time most people hit 70, they usually have underlying health issues.

27 were elderly nursing home patients.

In Louisiana, the first death was a 58 year old person in the Touro Infirmary that was reported to have underlying conditions, the second death in Louisiana is reported to be a 53 year old person. The article gives no further details nor has Governor John Bel Edwards said whether or not there were underlying conditions. Certainly, that is information that I would like to know because if this second death in Louisiana is a healthy 53 year old, I would have to admit that would be a little scary.

Is it really accurate to attribute such a death to the Wuhan flu?

If she had bilateral pneumonia with scans looking like other Wuhan flu patients and test positive for Covid 19 and died from respiratory distress, then yes. It’s absolutely appropriate to attribute it to Covid 19. Just like you’d attribute a pneumonia death to an HIV patient to HIV (usually).

wake me up when the Corona has taken out as many as the flu in the USA...20k to go to catch up....

once we get 20k, then we can close up things...

for what we’ve canceled, it should be in the tens of millions

I haven't seen one person under 50

81 years old

so 50+ people dying at 81 instead of 82 or 83 is going to cost us an ungodly amount of money

(and I know it will end up being more but it won't justify all this bullshite)

And over half of those deaths were people so far past self care, that they were already in nursing facilities.
