But the substantive point stands, At 600 per, that's about a quarter of Covid deaths, when covid was probably at its peak.

I believe we would see a similar pattern for covid, it may end up that reporting the three together would be a good metric.
Building up statistics over the next 5-10 years (and longer) will be interesting to see how many people survived covid but due to damage to their lungs (and other organs) that they sustained then find other health issues developing.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment
