Why have no politicians, media heads, agency heads, etc died from Covid?

Hell hardly none even caught Covid. All those geriatrics in the US Congress, former presidents and pres. Candidates like Bill and Hillary who are in horrible health, Biden, Supreme Court justices, Cabinet members, heads of the letter agencies, media talking heads, etc, none have caught Covid and been hospitalized. Only Rand Paul even had it that I know of (and he definitely isn’t in the inner circles).
What do they have that we don’t? Why isn’t it affecting them?

Herman Cain "supposedly" died from Covid

hydroxychloroquine + zinc + zpac

Most people who get it recover without any issues.
Statistically it would be odd for a lot of well-known politicians to have serious problems with it, no?
It almost killed Boris Johnson.

Because they are taking the antiviral HCQ:

Isn't zpac an antibiotic?

Generally, such high-level people get to enjoy a higher standard of healthcare than us commonfolk..

Rep. Reggie Bagala, a Louisiana state lawmaker who represented parts of Jefferson and Lafourche parishes, has died after being ill with COVID-19, a longtime friend says.

The most obvious answer is that few people in any group, other than the superannuated or those possessing co-morbidities, are likely to die from COVID. You can look this up, but the mortality rate is below 1%. With all that said, Herman Cain died of COVID, as have some celebrities, such as John Prine.

Yes. Azithromycin.

Yea, and also just as odd that out of hundreds or thousands of people, most over age of 55, none have caught it and gotten symptoms
And yea I forgot about Cain but I’m mostly talking about ones who are active politically or in the media, or are very outspoken/pushing the Covid shutdown stuff. Cain was pretty irrelevant and not in the inner circle “elite” in DC

Ok then why can’t regular people have it? Why can’t we take all that stimulus money and instead use it to provide every American a script of the above and tell them shut everything down for 2 weeks. Stay at home, take this script for 2 weeks. Virus can’t infect anything and it dies out. Resume normal life.

I think it is also a steroid that prevents inflammation.

If they're taking it that seriously, they're probably going out of their way to mitigate and reduce their risks.
They also probably have the level of income to isolate properly, as well as a job that takes precautions and tests.
I guess you have to ask what % of old politicians you're aware of and compare to that to the % of the population who have severe COVID symptoms. Probably not a huge chance for overlap there.

Obviously, they are smarter than us.

Pretty sure they will give it to you at The Lake. Doctors in BR have been using it. Media wont report on it though.

Why haven't all the anti-maskers died?
Disney didn't close until March 15. Millions of people, scattered back across the globe, surely there are piles of dead bodies wearing Disney ears?
No masks required on flights well into the crisis. Are the dead bodies being stored in secret areas of airports?
Lowe's and Home Depot are having a banner year. They didn't require masks until recently. Did they build a secret location for all the dead customers and employees?
And so on and so on. Yet, people cower in fear over a virus that prefers to kill 90 year old near-invalids and morbidly obese diabetics.

That’s a state representative. I’m referring to those in the DC inner circles. State reps are usually just ordinary folk
If he was a US representative it would fit
