In Washington State the Department of Health has been keeping track. Approximately 55% of all fatalities are 80 years of age or older:

Only 7% of fatalities are under 60 years of age. 37% are 60-79. Only 1% of all fatalities are under 40.


Yeah, ANYBODY can get it and ANYBODY can die of it but the RISK of dying of it if you do get it is pretty low for anyone under 60 without some serious preexisting conditions.
