We have to break down our population into categories. As a person who is getting older, we know that in history getting this old has not been the norm. Our aging need to be studied as much as possible. Getting old means the body breaks down a bit. Maybe a lot. Immunity and body systems can and does decrease. People getting sick with this virus or flu can die. I would hope as medicine gets better that improving the health of the aging increases by medical advancements. Extending the lifespan is less important then that.If you did you would have to lock up every governor that is presiding over a state where the virus is out of control and yet still want to act like we are on the downside of this. Lots of old people are dead and many others are yet to perish in your red states yet you only seem to care about the ones you can pin on a democratic governor. Make up your minds. Is this a deadly disease or is this a minor flu with acceptible losses? Can't have it both ways.
