Default only one-third of PWP survive 6 years?

It says barely one-third of people with Parkinson's survive 6 years. So two out of three die within 6 years. But it also said half were over 80 years old... but were they 80 when they were diagnosed, and therefore died on average by age 86? Or were they 80 when they died?
Gloomy statistics that I have never seen before.
Bring some placebos real quick; reality is not my favorite destination.
but 2 out 3 three die in six years? Really?
