Gregory's Server@augieray @jawarajabbi Could this be explained by demographics in the three countries? The baby boomers are aging. Correlation does not equal causation.

@yappari @augieray @jawarajabbi It’s actually the opposite. Due to immigration the working population gets actually younger or stays the same. Germany for example, due to Ukraine war. But they have the same issue with rising disability. @tobi82 @augieray @jawarajabbi That is not true in the US. In the US the population overall is aging. https://www2.census.gov/library/publications/decennial/2020/census-briefs/c2020br-06.pdf @yappari @tobi82 @jawarajabbi It is not especially aging in the past five years. Look at the data and research on long covid and repeat infections. @augieray @tobi82 @jawarajabbi Census data at the links says otherwise. My only point is that correlation is not causation. Could there be a causal connection to Covid? Sure. But it could also be due to aging of the people who have survived the pandemic. |
@yappari @jawarajabbi There have been over a thousand studies that find COVID can cause chronic damage to organs and we know long covid is not rare. How much evidence do you require?
