By median age Germany is actually older than Italy, though. Not sure how age really correlates here.

Per https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/coronavirus-age-se... the number of deaths is very strongly correlated with how many are 70+.

Median and average don't matter. Density of senior citizens does.
