Average life expectancy in the UK: 81

Average age of death of someone from coronavirus in the UK: 82

So in order to die of coronavirus in the UK to have to be dead first and, if you do get it, you live longer.

He knows the medical community was and still is pushing the lockdown .

You mean like the 36,598 medical scientists and doctors who have signed the Great Barrington Declaration and the WHO coming out saying the lockdowns have been a mistake and should stop?

Never worried about dying from it. I'm far more concerned with long term adverse effects. I have asthma, and a bad bout with COVID could aggravate that for months.

Did you know you also get "long cold" and "long flu", too, but we just never hear of it?

Figures can lie and liars can figure!

The average age of people who died from Covid-19 in England and Wales since the pandemic began is 82.4, the Daily Mail can reveal.

That figure – computed from Office of National Statistics data by experts at Oxford University – is significantly higher than the average age reached by people recorded as dying from all other causes, which is 81.5.

The study by Oxford’s Centre for Evidence Based Medicine also suggests that fewer than six people per thousand who get coronavirus now are likely to die from it.

The death rate – known as the infection fatality ratio, or IFR – has plummeted since June, even allowing for a big increase in testing.

Then, the study’s authors estimate, about 30 people per thousand who contracted the virus were dying.

The figures also show that currently 40 per cent of those who die from Covid are over 85, and a further 33 per cent are between 75 and 84.

A quarter were suffering from advanced dementia. Barely 1 per cent of those who die are under 44.

The new figures appear to provide support for the ‘Great Barrington Declaration’, which has now been signed by nearly 15,000 leading scientists and doctors.

The declaration, named after the Massachusetts town where it was drawn up last weekend, urges governments to switch from blanket, lockdown-style measures to ‘focused protection’ for the most vulnerable.

It criticises lockdown policies and represents a splintering of the scientific consensus over the coronavirus response.

As of last night it had been signed by 4,800 doctors and 9,050 medical and public health scientists.

According to the declaration, younger people who are most unlikely to die ‘should immediately be allowed to resume life as normal’.

It argues that this would build herd immunity, which in turn would protect the elderly and sick – who would be in isolation – because there would be lower infection rates in the community.

The raw numbers aren't as important as the necessity. Coronavirus could be greatly reduced by precautions that cost nickels and dimes & take only a minute or two of time.

So we should lock everyone down, stop people seeing their loved ones, make millions unemployed, cause the biggest recession ever, all of which will lead to more deaths than coronavirus, all because of a disease which is killing almost nobody under the age of 44 and whose average age of death is greater than the life expectancy?

Great idea! I can see you've really thought this through.

As for nickles and dimes, soon you won't have any.

Your argument falls apart when you say ALMOST NOBODY under age 44 dies. That's well & good until the guy under 44 dying is YOU. There's denominations of money far larger than nickels or dimes that I'm in much bigger danger of running out of.

I think YOUR argument fell apart several minutes ago.

There's denominations of money far larger than nickels or dimes that I'm in much bigger danger of running out of.

I hope you do lose your job, your livelihood and your money. Then you'll know how millions of other people feel and maybe you'll then start to realise what a big mistake locking down an economy was because of a not-very-deadly flu.
