It’s the aged or infirm, Underlying health conditions, that are most fatally susceptible to the COVID-19 pandemic. Not that your age condemns you as an individual; we are talking averages and percentages here. Think of the cluster of deaths at the Washington State nursing home, but also think of the active and hearty 89 year old cruise ship survivor.
However, age does make a difference in just about everything and have you noticed? It certainly is making a difference in how one reacts to the pandemic. A long conversation over the weekend with a millennial, railing against the boomers and greatest generation among us, for what she termed irresponsible and cavalier attitude about …. living; going out to eat, meeting friends for coffee or drinks. It’s not so much the point she was making, but the rising stress it seemed to cause.I worry that an entire generation will have to learn about keeping calm and carrying on.
