He said people under 70 aren't at risk, so you run a comparison to people under 40? How does that prove anything? If the number below 40 is very very low, then 30X that number could still be very low.
That said, I agree with you that the OP understated the risks. I got through this thing at age 54, seemingly OK. But I know others in my age group that had it pretty bad.
