Younger patients are going to the hospital from Covid

 "Earlier in the pandemic, and certainly before we had vaccinations, we were seeing a much older patient population in the emergency department and getting admitted to the hospital," Jarvis said.

"In recent weeks, we've been seeing a much younger population," he said. "We're seeing a lot of people in their 30s, 40s, early 50s. We're seeing some teenagers and some pediatric patients as well."
end partial quote from:
Often younger patients believe that if they get it they won't die or be hospitalized but that is proving not true anymore (if it ever was). And Brain Fog and Long Covid are a more and more serious problem for younger people every day now too. ("long covid" means you have serious health issues for years if not for life from getting covid.
