The ages of all Thailand's alleged Sars-cov-2 deaths would make interesting reading.  I'd suggest they are probably similar to the UK, where the median age of covid related deaths  is 82 years and the mean age is 79.9 years.   For comparison, the official life expectancy in the UK is  81 years.

 

Data from March 2020 to June 2021.

 

My source is ons.gov.uk if anybody doubts the official government data.  You have to download the somewhat difficult to find spreadsheet released under a freedom of information request - I don't know why they would try to hide this info .
