Note: Daily COVID-19 updates going forward will happen on Monday, Wednesday and Friday (unless something significant needs to be reported on the other days) during the week. Weekly weekend charts will continue to happen when there are significant items to review.
Today is the first time, in my looking at the age bracket breakdown of confirmed cases and deaths, that the 20-29 year olds have outnumbered the 40-49 year olds. They appear to be moving upward. Our 30-39 year olds have been leading all ranges by a big margin for some time now.
