I am saddened for those that die despite doing everything that they can to prevent it. The vaccine doesn’t always work. Some people can’t get it for legitimate health reasons (as opposed to the illegitimate excuses some people use). Etc.
Call me cold hearted, but with the exception of the minority of people meeting the above criteria, I can’t help but imagine that most of the people dying of COVID at this point are willfully ignorant Trumpets taking one for their team. Good riddance to them. That’s one less ballot we need to worry about in November.
I’d like to see the data broken out by comorbidities, vaccination status, etc. so we can understand the risks - is it mostly elderly? Immunocompromised? Unvaccinated? Diabetics? It would be useful to have a real assessment of my personal risk of dying at this point, and whether or not I should be alarmed. For instance, if it’s mostly unvaccinated people, that’s sad, but I’m basically a pincushion at this point so no worries.
Agreed, that would be useful knowledge. I’m sure there’s a publicly available data set that has that information somewhere. But it’s probably a case of knowing who to ask for the raw data and being willing to crunch your own numbers.

Yup, the only good thing Trump has ever done was killing off a ton of his cult members.
