0–17 years old: 20 per 1,000,000 or .002% (99.998% survival)
18–49 years old: 500 per 1,000,000 or .05% (99.95% survival)
50–64 years old: 6,000 per 1,000,000 or .6% (99.4% survival)
65+ years old: 90,000 per 1,000,000 or 9% (91% survival)
You would think that instead of mandating vaccines to people under the age of 50 who generally have survival rates of 99.95% or higher that they would focus on those over 50.
I think if they showed any bit of common sense about it and applied the directives to the people that have the highest risks people wouldn't question their motives as much.

I'm not saying that that is their goal but it seems a bit suspicious when the CDC estimates infection fatality rates of the following:
0–17 years old: 20 per 1,000,000 or .002% (99.998% survival)
18–49 years old: 500 per 1,000,000 or .05% (99.95% survival)
50–64 years old: 6,000 per 1,000,000 or .6% (99.4% survival)
65+ years old: 90,000 per 1,000,000 or 9% (91% survival)
