Here's why 32% of young adults are vulnerable to severe Covid-19 coronavirus infections:
You would qualify as a “yes” if you have one of the following six medical conditions: a heart condition , diabetes, asthma, immune condition , liver condition, and obesity. Having more than one of these conditions would not “up your score,” because there was no score. Again there are only two possible answers. You couldn’t be a “yes, yes, yes” or a “YES” in ALL CAPS.Another way to fall into the “yes” category would be to have used tobacco, cigars, or electronic cigarettes over the past 30 days.
With this most complicated of indicators in place, the research team then combed through the answers to thethat 8,405 young adults had provided from 2016 to 2018 and determined who fell into the “yes” versus “no” categories. This wasn’t just a convenience sample, such as everyone who happened to turn up to someone’s campaign rally. Instead, it was designed to be a nationally representative sample of young adults. Close to half of the respondents were female. A little over half were White , 13.
So sorting out the responses to the relevant questions revealed that 32% of this sample of 18-to-25 year olds qualified as “yes.” That included 33% of males and 30% of females. Of all the criteria, smoking in the past 30 days was the most common criterion that folks had, with 11% of them responding affirmative to this question. This was followed by asthma , using e-cigarette in the past 30 days , and using cigar products in the past 30-days .
