In reality it's more like over 80. Yes the incidence of severe cases does go up with age, but it's the very elderly who are most at risk. I'm 54, I had it, and it was a couple of days of slight nasal congestion and a very mild sore throat. If it had been any other year I wouldn't have paid it any mind at all and would have probably attributed it to the dry winter air.

My dad is in his 50s and he was in the hospital for a week near death on a ventilator. I know within 2 degrees of separation at least 6 people who have died. All were in their 50s and 60s. How they commit the crime of being older.
