I think everyone can agree by now it’s more contagious and deadlier than a regular seasonal flu. Still, when a younger person ends up in the hospital, that doesn’t mean they are healthy for their age. Obesity and diabetes for example (too much of that in younger people these days unfortunately). This article addresses the stat Cuomo brought up.
