Is it true that the average age of those who die from covid19 is older than the average age that folks die in the US?

If that's true does anyone have any regrets in the way this has been handled?

That's all reasonable.

It's as though nobody is willing to talk about the acceptable death rate. As it stands now it's as though 1 is too many and anyone saying otherwise doesn't care about human...

I disagree. It changed as the government schools started focusing on feelings over accomplishment and the parents let it happen at home. The trophy for all mindset has consequences.

Liberty is freedom of choice. Like my body, my choice. Free to choose sheltering in place. Freedom to choose isn't the enemy.

The enemy is nominds like you who don't respect freedom of choice.
