Nice, more minimizing, more "comorbidities".
I'm 30 and I have "comorbidities" but they wouldn't affect my covid survival. If I died, you'd scratch me from your cherrypicked stats.
Fuck grandma, she had high blood pressure so she doesn't count.

Comorbidities are an extremely relevant and important detail in assessing the threat of any disease, especially when drafting public policy to respond to that disease.
If being obese and having diabetes makes you much more likely to die of covid, should we not draft policy to reduce obesity and diabetes first? Let's have a government mandated maximum daily caloric intake. Let's have government mandated administration of blood pressure medication to all citizens. These measures would reduce mortality more than wearing a shitty mask.
Again this is all beside the point, all of life is a risk assessment. The question is whether the risk is worth the sacrifice, and many including myself don't think that it is.
