162 total deaths ages 15-24, which pretty well covers most college students. That is out of 112,000 supposed COVID deaths, and 1.276 million overall deaths in this country since Feb. 1 2020. And that is out of 12,369 total deaths in the 15-24 demographic. This means not quite 1 in 700 deaths from COVID is in that age group. It also means that ONE PERCENT of all deaths in that age group were from COVID. ONE BLANKING PERCENT, in the middle of a pandemic so horrible we have to stop the economy, traumatize a generation of kids, flip we don’t know how many tens of thousands of people into massive depression, suicide, and drug and alcohol abuse and related deaths. This is a disease SO BAD that at least half the people who have it don’t even know it. Here is a newsflash: if you don’t want to kill grandma, stay away from her. I’m not telling you to rub every surface in every bathroom, spend days drunk in a bar, then go hug and kiss your grandmother and have an intimate conversation in close proximity to her that lasts for hours. Nobody is saying that. You people are just being obtuse because you are SCARED. Is courage even a value any more? The masked people seem to think attacking old people with walkers while massed in groups is brave.

I will add that if I add up the WHOLE of 0-24 I now get 191. Since Feb. 1 22,585 people in that age group have died of some cause or other. Cancer for many I would suppose, and car accidents, accidental drownings (I wonder if those are up?), falls and that sort of thing.
191 divided by 22525 is .008. .1 is ten percent, .01 1 percent, so .008 is 8 parts in a thousand. Out of all the kids who have died since the world losts its fucking mind, 8 out of every thousand have died, we are told, of COVID-19.
