       | In other words, all else being equal if you get Covid today your
       | chance of dying is about 50% higher than if you got it 3 years
       | ago. (All else is not equal due to vaccines and different strains
       | and better treatments, but still). It's yet another example of
       | how terrible aging is for both individuals and society.
