More recently, it was reported that people in the older age group should be especially wary of coronavirus infection. According to the latest data, the disease began to progress in younger patients as well.
Coronavirus infection is dangerous for everyone. Although at first, doctors noted that the main risk group is people of the older generation.
The vast majority of patients worldwide who have died from COVID-19 were over 60 years old.
In Russia, this statistics was also confirmed – all the victims of the virus were of advanced age and suffered from a number of other diseases.
If we are not talking about a fatal outcome, the situation is somewhat different. So, on March 29, the Moscow operational headquarters to prevent the importation and spread of coronavirus infection reported the serious condition of younger patients.
A third (33,5%) of infected Muscovites are people from 18 to 34 years old. Another 46% are those who are from 35 to 64 years old.
Statistics show that almost 40% of Muscovites under 40 years old with diagnosed coronavirus are now connected to artificial lung ventilation devices.
Similar data were announced by other countries, which means that a person of absolutely any age can be seriously affected by COVID-19.
Recall that the overwhelming majority of Russian patients with coronavirus are registered in Moscow. Now there are more than a thousand patients in the capital, while in other regions of the country there are about five hundred.
