People keep talking about death rates like that's the only number that matters. Two of my coworkers (one 35, the other 25) both contracted the coronavirus in March. Four months later neither one can smell or taste anything. Doctors think that could be permanent for a good percentage of people who contract the virus. Imagine being 25 and being told you'll never smell or taste anything ever again.
Meanwhile there are concerns about long-term lung and brain damage for people of all ages. This is a brand new (novel) virus and very little is known about its long-term effects. Scoffing at the death percentage (which is quite high BTW) and its predilection to kill older adults while totally ignoring everything else we know and don't know is downright dangerous.
