>>11506607Infants have their immune system supplied by breast milk, then gradually build over the years into a fully-formed immune system during adulthood. Immune systems unchecked or in rampage mode will fuck you up as much as the virus, resulting in fever, inflammation, damage to lungs, etc. . Old people BTFO 'cause:
1. COVID infection
2. immune response damages lungs etc.
3. no oxygen starves heart
4. low blood pressure starves liver, kidneys, etc.
5. Poor enzyme control, nitrate control damages heart and lungs
6. rinse and repeat until dead
Young people generally fine because our immune systems aren't retarded. Really young kids fine (in some circumstances) 'cause their immune systems suck.
Look up cytokine storm.
