The Wuhan pneumonia (novel coronavirus disease, COVID-19) Epidemic continues to spread in the United States, and a team of researchers from Imperial College London has pointed out that the largest group of virus transmission in the United States comes from young adults between the ages of 20 and 49, calling for U.S. officials to focus on this age group in curbing the spread of the virus.
Imperial College London used cell phone location data covering more than 10 million people and publicly available information on the spread of the virus to calculate the overall flow of the epidemic since September last year, and used it to calculate which age groups were the most important in the spread of the virus. 72.2 percent, less than 5 percent of those aged 0 to 9 and less than 10 percent of those aged 10 to 19 were diagnosed.
The team believes that a mass vaccination program for young adults between the ages of 20 and 49 may be able to bring the pneumonia epidemic under control and prevent the number of deaths from continuing to rise.
