What's the median and average age of those that died? How many re-existing conditions did they have?
It may sound super cynical and all, but perhaps we've forgotten that natural conclusion to life is death

...but on average, they won't. It's way more than a pious "this exceptional case confirms an non-existing rule" thing. Let's get past the fear mongering.
Furthermore I have contracted it and guess what, I'm fine _now_ (sure we could argue about "long term effects" but at the moment that is big unknown). I'm also quite young so that played a part of course.
It's not dismissive to say everyone has to go sometime, it's just the truth.
If you're willing to sacrifice resources to give an extra few years to an already dying or sickly subject that's fair enough but pardon me if I beg to differ and look at the other side for the argument and focus on the repercussions for those that will not be _medically_ affected as much.
