Thanks for the last two posts that put things in perspective. The Vietnam war deaths were of young men killed in their prime, robbing them of perhaps 50 years of productive life. CV 19 deaths appear to mainly those whose life expectancy was not that long. Here in Australia, I believe our last 5 deaths have all been in nursing homes, and over the age of 80, some over 90.
