No Nudga. Of course they didn't. But 50 year olds with diabetes or high blood pressure who died of COVID lost a lot more years.The age group that lost most life years from COVID has been 60-65 year olds.
Not everyone can survive. Therefore sadly, some individuals will die.
People also need to learn to accept that the futile obsession with stopping or slowing transmission of the virus has to stop. Let the virus spread, get your jabs if you wish, if the jab doesn't work then so be it. The virus must be allowed to spread and we must accept it if we are to get our lives back.

But then they put the onus on the fact that they stick to measures to protect others when deep down they know that is b*llocks and they know that they are using that as excuse to get people to comply because this would make them safer. So that in itself is selfish behaviour. These people are in denial. Were 144k dead people in denial?

CDHWhich is why you don't look at individuals. You look at the entire population.175000 people in the UK have died of COVID. On average they have lost 10.2 years of expected life. The "low hanging fruit" idea is a grotesque insult to the people who have died and I'm sick iof hearing it idly used by people to belittle a national and global tragedy.
To be honest. I really couldn't care less who lives and dies anymore as i'm just weary of the whole thing. Nearly 2 years of this lunacy and still nobody can let it go.

Christ, it's like the last 4 centuries never happened. This is like listening to a bunch of medieval peasants discussing the Plague.

This is like listening to a bunch of medieval peasants discussing the Plague.The difference being that Covid is a minor virus and won't kill most people who get it, like the plague. Another difference being that people have the option of a vaccine for Covid whereas no preventative treatments were available for the plague.
Colin, you’re coming across as a bit of a bullying keyboard warrior here
Well if you care to re-read your posts I’d start with #14657 where you tell CDH he has a “Tiny mind” and go back from there looking at the tone you address him with

To piss you off like. Because I can & I know you don’t like it. You came at me from nowhere without provocation. So you need to start absorbing some shit brother, which I’m sure you’ll be able to as you can’t take anything I say seriously. Should be a piece of piss man.
