At least 97,000 young people in the United States tested positive for the new coronavirus in the last two weeks of July, according to a new report from the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Children’s Hospital Association.
The report came when lawmakers and fitness experts across the country faced questions about the reopening of schools, which closed in the spring when the coronavirus began to spread across the country. Some Trump management officials have been pushing hard to resume face-to-face classes, while others have expressed considerations about equipping schools to address potential epidemics.
About 338,000 young people in the United States have tested positive for COVID-19 since the start of the pandemic, according to the report, which includes public knowledge from 49 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and Guam. The report notes that Texas provides age distribution for a small proportion of cases.
Between July 16 and July 30, a total of 97,078 young people tested positive for the virus, marking a 40% increase in young people, according to the researchers. Approximately 7 out of 10 cases of this era were recorded in the southern states.
Alaska, Oklahoma, Missouri, Idaho and Montana are among the states that reveled in the largest buildup of inflamed youth, according to the report. Meanwhile, Arizona, South Carolina, Tennessee and Louisiana are among the states with the highest reported cases of coronavirus in youth since the onset of the pandemic.
The report notes that young people’s age teams vary by state. Alabama, for example, has known cases of young people 24 years of age or older. Others indicate that anyone 18 years of age or younger to be a child.
The mortality rate remains low for young people, the researchers noted. In states reporting data, between 0 and 0.3% of COVID-19 cases in young people resulted in death.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention established rules in July that said young people are less likely to have severe symptoms of the disease. But there is still combined evidence as to whether young people play a vital role in the spread of COVID-19 to adults, a factor for teachers and staff who would be close to students for several hours a day in reopened schools.
The new CDC rules mean that schools will reopen at least to some extent unless network transmission is superior or uncontrolled.
Many school districts plan to start the school year with virtual categories or a combination of virtual and face-to-face learning. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo Andrew Cuomo Ohio Republicans are writing accusations against the Republican governor because of the orders of coronavirus Would a Democrat have treated the pandemic better? Stars coming to New York for 14-day, 40-day MTV VMA: The MORE (D) report announced last week that schools in their state could reopen for in-person learning due to declining transmission rates.
But considerations have persisted about how fitness guidelines can be met.
One of Georgia’s top schools attracted national attention last week after academics shared photographs of crowded corridors on their first days back. Dr. Brian Otott, superintendent of the Paulding County School District, said in a letter to parents on Sunday that the school would temporarily move to virtual learning after six academics and 3 members of COVID-19.
