Coronavirus: Uptick in Canada’s daily cases associated with young adults, health official says
Description
July 21, 2020
Speaking with reporters on Tuesday, Deputy Chief Public Health Office of Canada Dr. Howard Njoo remarked on the recent uptick of daily coronavirus cases in Canada, saying the vast majority of the increase in the proportion of cases is among young adults. Dr. Njoo said there were a number of reasons to explain the increase, including fatigue, more likely to have indoor parties, and the "invincible factor" of young people who are most likely to have mild or asymptomatic symptoms of COVID-19.
