1/3 cases are young children - up to 1/2 under 18

Hodges said that about a third of those who have recently tested positive in Hooper Bay are under the age of 12, and half are younger than 18. the article also states only 50% of the eligible population is vaccinated (which includes the group between 12 and 18.)

Higher infection rates in young people was also observed in the UK where schools were locked down again when it firs became the dominant strain there. |
