Mike Pence Says Half of the Americans Testing Positive for Coronavirus Are Under the Age of 35

EXCERPT:

PENCE: “There's another way, John, that this is different from early on. And that is that one of the things that we’ve heard in Texas and Florida in particular, is that nearly half of those who are testing positive are Americans under the age of 35. That's contributing to the fact that those that are requiring to be hospitalized, who are testing positive for coronavirus, is significantly lower than it was two months ago. And so we really believe that what is happening here is a combination of increased testing, we’re able to test a great deal more Americans than we were able to several months ago, but it also may be an indication that as we're opening our economy up, that younger Americans have been congregating in ways that may have disregarded the guidance that we gave on the federal level for all the phases of reopening.”
