The average age of a person who died from COVID-19 during the week ending January 16 was 75 years old.

Out of the individuals who died from COVID-19 during the week, 20, or 95% had at least one other medical complication.

The American Academy of Pediatrics and the Children's Hospital Association stated that in the United States, children represent about 9% of all COVID-19 cases. The Mayo Clinic points out that kids of all ages can catch COVID-19 but most don’t become as sick as adults and some show no symptoms at all.

Figures are accurate as of January 24.
