Why haven't any of the 5% around the world died of Covid?

No CT, just really wondering. Did they go to their shelter places at the first hint or what?

I haven't heard of the death of a famous person, either. I'm talking about someone who at least 50% of people would have heard of.

I'm sure a bunch of well-to-do folks bugged out of NYC for their place in the Hamptons back in early March.
