CDC: Coronavirus Disease 2019 Case Surveillance -- United States, January 22-May 30, 2020

https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/69/wr/mm6924e2.htm?s_cid=mm6924e2_w#T2_down

Many interesting statistics in here. Be sure to view the tables at less than 100%, because they cannot be viewed easily or at all at 100%. Set your viewer (browser) at 75% or so.

eta: For example, Table 3: The death rates for people 60 - 69 who are healthy who contract COVID-19: 6.7%; Death rate for same age bracket for those with underlying health conditions: 16.7%

the age bracket in question (60-69).

Table 3 is reporting deaths ONLY among COVID-19 patients. See this screenshot:

Now this screenshot shows the overall perspective, showing the precise age range and the other factors
in the vertical columns:



I stand by my original post, with no corrections necessary.
