COVID-19’s Weakness is its Strength

About 4/5ths or 80% of the deaths come from 1/5th or 20% of the Canadian population. Our seniors and those living in long-term care facilities have been ravished with obscure and unregulated measures to say the least. On the opposite spectrum, approximately 1/5th or 20% of the deaths have come from 4/5th or 80% of the population that are younger than our senior population and perhaps some underlying health issues. While not short of devastating to families affected, it is roughly a thousand deaths in 80% of the population or about 1 in 40,000 deaths in this sizeable wedge of our communities. The mortalities equate to a relatively small number of 2.5 per deaths for every 100,00 Canadians.
