90 yo = 14.1% of cases
The 90+ probably is lower because there are less 90 year olds in general. Italy has a very old population, something like 60% is over 40.

Doctor Grasselli on in the tube video above who's coordinating the network of intensive care units in Lombardy Italy seems to be saying different and he's at ground zero right now.
You keep on supporting your Trump voting pencil pushing doctor of quack, but for myself I'd rather hear it from those fighting the battle right now and what their up against on a day to day base... that reports from yesterday. where he says 65 is medium age, 50% higher and 50% lower.
The death rate is higher for older people, but as far as ending up isolated in ICU we need to be thinking more like those over 35.
