You can simply look at the excess death rates to see the impact of COVID. You're also assuming death is the only negative endpoint. I've been fighting long covid for 9 months now and cant walk to the end of the block and back. I'm 32 and was previously pretty athletic and ate healthier than your average American. I'd only been to the ER a couple times in my life due to broken bones playing ice hockey. This year I've been to the ER at least 10 times. Mild case though... cause I haven't died yet.
