If you do not like the way the figures are presented I suggest you take it up with the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Controlwho collated the figures. I suspect they knowa little bit more about it than point scoring nit pickers. The figures in the table were the Situation update for the EU/EEA and the UK, as of 21 March 2020

Research from Italy into 355 deaths found that only three (0.8%) had no other illnesses. Nearly half of them - 48.5% - already had three or even more health conditions Another 25.6% had two other 'pathologies', while 25.1% had one other illness

0-8   1.2%
19-50 25%
