Omicron Is in Retreat: ‘What’s Next?’ – The New York Times
January 23, 2022extended QT: {{”
A typical 65-year-old American woman — to take one example — is five foot three inches tall and weighs 166 pounds. If she had been vaccinated and did not have a major Covid risk factor, like an organ transplant, her chance of dying after contracting Covid would be 1 in 872, according to the calculator. For a typical 65-year-old man, the risk would be 1 in 434.
Among 75-year-olds, the risk would be 1 in 264 for a typical woman and 1 in 133 for a typical man.
Those are meaningful risks. But they are not larger than many other risks older people face. In the 2019-20 flu season, about 1 out of every 138 Americans 65 and older who had flu symptoms died from them, according to the C.D.C.

Liked this qt: “A typical 65-year-old…woman…If…vaccinated and did not have a major Covid risk factor…her chance of dying after contracting Covid would be 1 in 872…In…2019-20…about 1 out of every 138 Americans 65 and older who had flu symptoms died from them.” …
But wonder if these stats are distorted by asymptomatic infections — i.e. if the 1 out of 872 reflects those showing Covid symptoms.
