The question the press does not seem to ask is how many of these people are hospitalized. The pleas for masks and ventilators implies most have been, but that is not in keeping with the stats that show 90% being mild cases. It would be worthwhile if Cuomo was asked this question.
Just found a site Covidtrackingproject that has hospitalizations. As of yesterday NY had 11500 positive tests. 45500 negative tests and 1600 hospitalizations.
No one ever said young people would not get the virus just that it was likely to be mild to very mild. Now if 50% of hospitilations are 18 to 49 male that could be explained by the presence of AIDS, fairly common in NY. Or behavior, vaping, very common among the 18 to 24 in NY.
