The Porcupine Health Unit says it’s no coincidence that almost two-thirds of current COVID-19 cases in its region are among people 39 and younger.
That statement comes in a web post announcing the region’s 33rd death from the virus.
Among current cases, 37.7% are in people between 20 and 39, and 28.8% in the 19 and under age group. Both those groups also have the lowest percentage of people with at least two doses of vaccine.
