"Some countries have been hit hard 2020, some not."
A follow up Thread.
A key issue during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is obviously how to protect vulnerables.
Let& #39;s do some deep dive into the age group 85+
The first I& #39;ve seen this chart the first time I couldn& #39;t believe it.

Are the numbers wrong?
The first chart was "death rate", hence it is population adjusted.
Lets have a look into total numbers.
This looks more reliable as there is a problem 2020, right?

Now, lets compare the total deaths vs. population growth and it gets clearer.

Why to compare european countries instead of single countries?
Single countries may be missleading, as an example
Spain vs. Portugal.

My own conclusion:
This pandemic is obviously challenging ethical principles!
Deaths rates hits the line of 2001 again.
2000 was even worse than 2020 !
What has changed during the last 20 years?
Population and life exectancy... and viruses, of course.

I thought age group > 85 may be not representative enough I did the same analysis for age group 75-84
All charts are per week, either rate based on population...:
(look at many years 15-20 years ago!)

...or based on total numbers.
Again: What is this pandemic about?
Isn& #39;t it just a natural effect?
I am sorry for that question!!!
