math would post an article from someone with no understanding of statistics.

People 65 and older make up roughly 80% of the Covid deaths in America but they make up only 13% of the population at large. So this person pretending that these numbers are comparable is just insane. If you want to make comparisons between numbers across vastly different population sizes then you need to make per capita comparisons. But those numbers are not near as scary so people continue to make analysis like this one and stupid people buy them because they don't understand numbers.

It is not your fault that you don't understand enough math to understand when you are being led astray but don't post it and expect the rest of us to be as clueless as you.
