Hahn testifies before the House Committee on Energy and Commerce on the Trump Administration's Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic, on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, June 23, 2020.

WHO says young people appear to be causing coronavirus cases to surge in some countries – CNBC

World Health Organization officials said Thursday that young people "letting down their guard" appear to be causing coronavirus cases to surge in some countries, and while their risk of death is generally low, they may suffer from long-term symptoms even after they recover.   "We have said it before and we will say it again, young people are not invincible," WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said during a press conference at the agency's headquarters in Geneva. "Young people can be infected, young people can die and young people can transmit the virus to others."  Convincing younger people across the globe that the virus could pose a serious risk for their health remains a challenge for WHO, Tedros said. Dr. Maria Van Kerkhove, head of the WHO's emerging...

His test came back positive, and the results were later confirmed by the New York City Department of Health...
