Covid found a niche. Old people and urban concentrations of people.

Sparse and younger populations much less affected.

Many governments in Africa have also imposed lockdowns to deal with the pandemic. Yet these countries have radically different age demographics to those in Asia and Europe.


Take two extremes. In Japan, 40% of people are over 55, and 28% are over 65.


In Uganda, the equivalent figures are 5% and 2%. In Japan, 13% of the population is made of up children under 14. In Uganda, this figure is 48%.
