I'll start it with this:

I’m 59 and on the edge of the danger zone. I really don’t want to catch this thing but I expect I will. This is going to be rough.

Obviously I look at where I am and what the response is likely to be. What help can I expect. That also looks unpromising to me. Africa is poor and undeveloped. First I thought the death toll would be very high then I remembered someone saying Italy was hard hit because of the age of its population. That got me wondering about the age of Africa’s population. Incredibly it turns out subsaharan Africa’s average age is 19,7!. Doesn’t help me much of course but will help the continent to a degree.
