Re:Coronavirus clue? Most cases aboard U.S. aircraft carrier... by ashtonkem on Thursday April 16, 2020 @07:08PM (#22894513)
There is no reason to believe that infections aren’t skewed by age. We took a wide range of preventative measures that are completely unique within living memory, such as closing down most schools and colleges. Until we’ve actually done statistical analysis on who got sick, any predictions based on historical trends are largely invalid.

Sure, but there is also no reason to believe that they are. There is however very good reason to believe that testing is skewed by age.
