That's fine, but seems to be making the same error as the article: numbers from the very beginning of the pandemic are perhaps not representative of the whole story. Particularly so when the numbers are taken from specific sub-populations.

The article numbers have comparative analysis of data dating to October.

We are really stretching the definition of "very beginning".

You have effectively repeated what I quoted VA leadership as saying in the article I linked.

Responses to this information are quite interesting.
