Should correct the total at 60683 potential deaths at 15% total population covid cases equally spread accross the age groups using the 60+ years old age groups case fatality rates.
However the US to June 2021 were at about 10% of population having at some time contracted covid.
A more realworld figure is using 10% of Aus population contracting covid and assuming equal spread accross the population would be 40494 potential deaths in the 60+ year old age groups.
IMO 40494 is just a calculation but what's important is that the numbers demonstrate how vaccinating a very small minority of our population could have saved the great majority of lives.
Locking us all down in Vic while we waited for young people and other low risk folk to be vaccinated was a reflection of a no risk society and controlling leadership.
Covid management vs our freedom to live normal lives could have been managed better IMO.
