The vast majority of deaths are in the over 60's
Around half of Covid fatalities are people who already have 3 or more illnesses
Only 0.9% of Covid fatalities have no other illnesses
Covid is thought to be much less infectious than measles or chicken pox. And it is less deadly than polio, tuberculosis and SARs
Each day, compared to Covid, there are more deaths from Tuberculosis, Hepatitus B, Pneumonia and HIV / Aids
Despite there being far fewer deaths to Covid than e.g. Tuberculosis, Hepatitus B, Pneumonia and HIV / Aids, the media is completely dominated by Covid stories. Have we got this out of proportion?
