Aggregates hide the reality contained within. Please find and post the percentage of those with serious underlying conditions. If you have COPD and you get pneumonia, yup, you gone. We have fooled ourselves into thinking that modern science vis a vis medicine can save us all.

ps, there is a 100% mortality rate for all of us, and 3 million will do so this year in the usa.
