At least 97,000 young people in the United States tested positive for coronavirus in the last two weeks of July alone, according to a new report from the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Children’s Hospital Association. The report indicates that at least 338,000 young people tested positive since the onset of the pandemic, that more than a quarter tested positive in just two weeks.
The report comes when parents and school officials face the demanding situation of resuming schooling as the virus continues to increase in parts of the country.
More than seven out of 10 infections were from southern and western states, according to the report, which was based on the knowledge of 49 states, as well as Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and Guam. The number may be higher because the report did not include all of Texas knowledge and data from parts of New York State outside the gates of New York.
According to the report, Missouri, Oklahoma, Alaska, Nevada, Idaho, and Montana were among the states with the highest buildup in the percentage of infections in years of formation in this period.
New York, New Jersey and other northeastern states, where the virus peaked in March and April, recorded the lowest cumulative percentage of infections in the formative years, according to the report.
A total of 338,982 young people were infected, according to the report.
Not all communities where knowledge was collected classify young people in the same age group. Most of the options cited in the report considered to be young people are other people under the age of 17 or 19. In Alabama, however, the age limit is 24 years; florida and Utah, the age limit is 14 years.
The report noted that young people rarely become seriously ill with Covid-19, however, another report, from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, highlighted how the risk of a new covid-19-like disease, called multisistemic inflammatory syndrome in young people, or MIS-C, has disproportionately affected other people of color.
The C.D.C. He stated that from early March to the end of July, he had gained reports from 570 other young people, from infants to 20 years of age, who met the giS-C definition. Most of these patients had smart health in the past, according to the report.
Approximately 40% were Hispanic or Latino; 33% were black and thirteen percent were white, according to the report. Ten died and nearly two-thirds were admitted to extensive care units, he said. Symptoms come with fever, rash, pink eyes, abdominal pain, confusion, bluish lips, muscle weakness, higher central frequency and central attack.
A reopened high school in Georgia that drew national attention to photographs of its overcrowded corridors has recorded at least nine cases of coronavirus in the week after and is moving to online education for at least the next two days, while the school is sanitized and officials are assessing the situation.
“Right now, we know that six students and three who were in school for at least a while last week informed us that they tested positive,” said Gabe Carmona, principal of North Paulding High School in Dallas, Georgia, Saturday in a letter to the parents and tutors of the school’s students.
Paulding County School District Superintendent Brian Otott sent them a letter Sunday informing them of the change to online education for at least Monday and Tuesday.
Both letters encouraged parents to monitor their children’s temperature twice a day and monitor them for symptoms. No letter discussed social estrangement or the use of masks, which, according to the school, are encouraged but mandatory.
Photos circulated widely online last week showed North Paulding students crammed into the hallway of a school with few masks. Hannah Watters, a 15-year-old student who posted one of the images, was first suspended for it, but the suspension was annulled.
After the photo posted on social media, Otott said the mask was not mandatory for the school, which has about 2,000 students, because “there is no practical way to enforce the mandate to use it.”
But Dr. Gary Voccio, director of fitness for Paulding County and nine other counties in northwestern Georgia, said the mask should involve the spread of the virus.
“Of course, you have to replace the study rooms and it will be very difficult to physically distance yourself when this happens,” Dr. Voccio said in a video posted on Facebook. “But masks, again, are the component of this problem. And we’ll have instances in schools, I’m sure.”
At least new coronavirus deaths and 4032 new cases were reported in Georgia on Saturday, according to a New York Times database.
Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine, who tested positive for coronavirus and then tested negative last week, said his roller coaster ride shouldn’t be an explanation for why other people think “tests aren’t reliable or don’t work.”
Governor DeWine was given the positive result when he took the test before President Trump arrived in Ohio to run in the election.
The check is an antigen checkout manufactured through Quidel, one of two checks that were approved for emergency use through the Food and Drug Administration. These controls, while fast and practical, are known to be less accurate than PCR controls, which were used to re-verify Governor DeWine twice on Thursday and once on Saturday. The 3 PCR controls were negative, confirming that the controller is not infected.
