[...] the virus seems to be affecting young people in the United States more than it has in China. A report released last week by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that up to 20% of people hospitalized with coronavirus in the United States are between the ages of 20 and 44.
[...] "So far the demography definitely seems to be very different in the United States versus in other countries that saw this hit earlier,"
[...] In New York state, more than half of coronavirus cases -- 53% -- have been among young people between the ages of 18 and 49
From MSN:
Kentucky coronavirus party with group of young adults has left at least one person infected:
At least one person in Kentucky is infected after taking part at a "coronavirus party" with a group of young adults [...] The partygoers intentionally got together "thinking they were invincible" and purposely defying state guidance to practice social distancing [...] "This is one that makes me mad," the governor said. "We have to be much better than that."
And...From Slate:
A group of Kentucky partygoers recently attended a "coronavirus party." The event, which appears to be a pandemic-themed soiree, as you might imagine, was not a civic-minded effort to promote social distancing practices and best hand-washing practices, but a slap in the face to everyone else's collective efforts to not kill our parents and grandparents. The party mocked the virus, and the coronavirus gods were angry. One of the twentysomething attendees of the ill-advised gathering in the midst of a national emergency tested positive for the virus Tuesday.
Maybe I'm too old to get it, but it seems to me somewhat unwise to do this.

Millennals blame everyone except themselves for their:
-poor life decisions ("going $120k in debt to pursue a humanity degree seems like a good idea")
oh yeah, it's college kids fault you fucking whores made getting a degree a fucking scam.
-entitlement of galactic proportions ("I just graduated-where's my $160K/yr starting wage job?")
how dare they expect their stupid piece of paper be worth what it was supposed to be worth.
-poor mental and physical health ("I am a sexy and beautiful 240lbs vegan(part-time) at 18, but I can't figure out why I already have diabetes, high blood pressure, and early-stage arthritis in the hips and knees?")
as if their stupid fucking whore ass parents didn't teach them to eat pig slop from the time they were born and spoil the shit out of them.
-continuing to pick terrible mentors and terrible role-models ("this tumblr-celebrity doesn't vaccinate her kids so neither will I. No one gets polio any more, right")
shove your boot licking bs up your ass, you baby brain damaging bitch. no one gets polio anymore b/c people stopped eating infected shit/indoor plumbing, you brainwashed slave.
-herd mentality ("I saw a video of fire-challenge/eyeball tattoos/pile-driving my friend off a roof/drinking bleach.That looks like fun so I must do that too!)
this is just the stupidity of youth. always has been always will be.
-poor financials ("How can I possibly afford a mortgage when I am spending $2500 a month on dining out?","Make a budget to control my spending? I will no lower myself to that level!")
they went to your schools, they went to your churches they went to your institutional learning facilities and they're the ones who are crazy?

Interesting how when everyone is at fault, you're not. Those were your schools, churches, etc.
