Has the virus run out of old people to infect, or is it evolving to reach more age ranges? |

I think it's just due to more widespread testing. A few months ago it was much harder to get a test and younger people were not tested. |

Just look at the ICU situations..... Most states at capacity....... And it's Only just starting........ CNN: Florida hospital ICUs near Miami, Orlando and Tampa have hit capacity. Reuters: U.S. coronavirus cases hit 3 million, stoking fears of overwhelmed hospitals. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-usa-cases/u-s-coronavirus-cases-hit-3-million-stoking-fears-of-overwhelmed-hospitals-idUSKBN24835F?feedType=mktg&feedName=topNews&WT.mc_id=Partner-Google |

Neither, it is because of the rule-breaking attitudes of the younger generations, who feel immune & immortal to this virus. Check out the videos, especially Diamond Lake, Michigan: The big surge in cases we are now seeing is a direct result of rule-breaking that occurred during Mother's Day and Memorial Day, so expect another massive crush of cases about 2 to 3 weeks after the July 4th holiday. |
