I am an old baby boomer Glen, and would take a hit any day for the millennials or any of the younger generation. I have already had my life, anything from now on is a bonus. I am of the opinion that many of the CV 19 deaths may well have proceeded from any other strain of the flu or even the common cold. I witnessed as much when my mother in law passed on some years back while in a nursing home.
