As of March 16, a total of 4,226 COVID-19 cases had been reported in the United States, with reports increasing to 500 or more cases per day beginning March 14 (Figure 1). Among 2,449 patients with known age, 6% were aged ≥85, 25% were aged 65–84 years, 18% each were aged 55–64 years and 45–54 years, and 29% were aged 20–44 years (Figure 2). Only 5% of cases occurred in persons aged 0–19 years.

Among 508 (12%) patients known to have been hospitalized, 9% were aged ≥85 years, 26% were aged 65–84 years, 17% were aged 55–64 years, 18% were 45–54 years, and 20% were aged 20–44 years. Less than 1% of hospitalizations were among persons aged ≤19 years (Figure 2). The percentage of persons hospitalized increased with age, from 2%–3% among persons aged ≤9 years, to ≥31% among adults aged ≥85 years. (Table).

Among 121 patients known to have been admitted to an ICU, 7% of cases were reported among adults ≥85 years, 46% among adults aged 65–84 years, 36% among adults aged 45–64 years, and 12% among adults aged 20–44 years (Figure 2). No ICU admissions were reported among persons aged ≤19 years. Percentages of ICU admissions were lowest among adults aged 20–44 years (2%–4%) and highest among adults aged 75–84 years (11%–31%) (Table).

Among 44 cases with known outcome, 15 (34%) deaths were reported among adults aged ≥85 years, 20 (46%) among adults aged 65–84 years, and nine (20%) among adults aged 20–64 years. Case-fatality percentages increased with increasing age, from no deaths reported among persons aged ≤19 years to highest percentages (10%–27%) among adults aged ≥85 years (Table) (Figure 2).

Please tell young people between the ages of 20 to 54 they are more vulnerable
to Coronavirus then first report by the CDC.

Please college students stop partying during spring break on the beaches of Florida and Alabama.

Remember, many of you will be flying home on commercial airlines or riding commercial buses, or car poolings and you maybe carrying the Coronavirus homes to your parents and other friends. IMHO.

Interesting comments, are or have the homeless population being impacted in China, South Korea, Europe or the United States by the Coronavirus?

This homeless population do not always have soap and water do wash their hands and their body parts. IMO.
 
I read that LA is trying to sequester hotels and RV parks to give exposed but not ill homeless (and those stuck traveling who have no place to go) off the street. below is an RV park on the beach where they will house some of these people.

Dockweiler Beach RV Park Used as Temporary Housing in Response to COVID-19

The RV park at Dockweiler Beach is one of several locations the county could use to temporarily house people.

Three deaths in Colorado, two were in Colorado Springs/ El Paso County. I hope this slows down a lot in Colorado. The snow is flying, so people might stay home and stay warm.
