Approximate yearly fatality rates in Italy according to Italy's ISS extended report data:
Feb. 20, 2020, through Dec. 29, 2020 = 3.45% (70,799 deaths out of 2,049,934 cases)
Dec. 30, 2020, through Dec. 28, 2021 = 1.77% (65,300 deaths out of 3,680,106 cases)
Dec. 29, 2021, through Nov. 9, 2022 = 0.23% (41,188 deaths out of 18,260,930 cases)

5-year-olds are at a nearly zero risk from COVID. The data was always absolutely clear on this.
According to the data in Italy's ISS extended reports -- and Italy was a hard-hit country -- for the first year of the outbreak (Feb. 20 through Dec. 29, 2020) the numbers were:
0-9 years of age = 78,664 cases and 9 deaths
That's a case fatality rate of 0.011% (1 in 8,740). Which means the survival rate was 99.989%.
There were 5,090,482 people aged 0-9 years in Italy in 2019. That means on a per capita basis:
1 in 65 became a case
1 in 565,609 died
Those aged 0-9 comprised 8.43% of the population, 3.84% of the cases, and just 0.013% of the lives lost. In contrast, those aged 70 or older comprised 17.05% of the population, 18.54% of the cases, and 85.88% of the deaths.

But my main question was, almost every day, 52% of the "deaths with covid" were in the over 80 age group. This was BEFORE any vaccination, during the early stages, and in the mid stages.
Italy's official data from April of 2020 clearly showed most of those succumbing to COVID were older. As of April 2, 2020, the data showed a total of 12,548 lives had been lost to the virus. The percentage distribution by age bracket:
0-9 years = 0.00%
10-19 years = 0.00%
20-29 years = 0.05%
30-39 years = 0.23%
40-49 years = 0.88%
50-59 years = 3.82%
60-69 years = 11.54%
70-79 years = 33.44%
80-89 years = 40.08%
90+ years = 9.97%
83.49% of the lives lost were aged 70 or older. It was abundantly clear even in April of 2020 it was the elderly who were most at risk, and that the majority of the population was at minimal risk.
Thirty-two months later, as of Dec 6, 2022, a total of 180,534 lives had been lost to the virus. The percentage distribution by age bracket:
0-9 years = 0.03%
10-19 years = 0.02%
20-29 years = 0.08%
30-39 years = 0.26%
40-49 years = 0.94%
50-59 years = 3.55%
60-69 years = 9.88%
70-79 years = 24.13%
80-89 years = 40.43%
90+ years = 20.69%
85.25% of the lives lost were aged 70 or older. Most of the percentages, despite vaccinations, are little changed; the only ones which showed notable change were 90+ which went up, and 70-79, which went down.

@realnews7424 They actually said at the beginning that older people were not affected.
This was unequivocally disproved with the early data out of Italy. On April 2, 2020, the third ISS extended report was published. At that point 12,550 lives lost had been recorded, of which 83.5% were aged 70 or older. In contrast, those under 50 years of age comprised 1.2% of the lives lost. Those aged 50-69 accounted for 15.4%.
By the end of 2020, the lives lost totaled 70,799 but the distribution by age group was almost identical: 85.9% were aged 70 or older; 1.1% were under 50 years of age; and 13.0% were aged 50-69.
I downloaded every one of Italy's ISS extended reports from March 12, 2020, through May 3 2023, and have them archived for posterity.
As of 2019, the distribution of Italy's population was 17% were aged 70 or older, 55% were under 50 years of age, and 23% were aged 50-69.
