The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a study that said about 38 percent of the 508 patients being hospitalized in the country are between 20 and 54, the New York Times reported. About 20 percent of patients, including those in intensive care, were between 20 to 44, the report said.

For the narrative that this is only affecting old people and everyone else is fine.

That is one hell of an age range.

What are their preexisting conditions?

Agreed, but I think the purpose was to just exclude the old nursing home geezers

You link to a fox news article, that references a NYT article behind a pay wall.
Ok.

The media clearly has an agenda here, you sheep that are slurping all the garbage they’re throwing out there are ruining this country.

Killing. Not affecting. Killing. It’s only killing the majority of elderly and people with preexisting conditions. No one ever said it only infects old people.
Also,

But yet it’s still almost exclusively the elderly dying.

The media does have an agenda. Has nothing to do with this case. The CDC isn’t putting out fake numbers.

So what you're saying is that this mostly affects the elderly?

No I'm doubting either of those news organizations' ability to report a story without a spin. I'd prefer you to link the actual study or scientific paper.
Not Fox News that is linking to NYT.
Both of which I trust less than a fat kid in a candy store.

But you didn't link the CDC report. You linked Fox News.

well the media does have a habit of lying and we know that higher ups in all levels of gov have no problem smearing numbers and lying.
Though I could see this number being believable as we have plenty of people with all kinds of conditions especially the 40 plus bracket that could put them in the hospital.
The other question would be how man of these actually need to be in the hospital vs those staying in long term. are we hospitalizing anyone with the virus to contain them or did they really need to be there.

It has a TON to do with this, guess what they get as they push hysteria and slanted skewed stats in your face...... ratings from idiot sheep like you.

Wtf kind of age range is 20-54.
I'm for using all measures possible to beat this thing, I'm not a denier, but even I can tell that this is complete horseshite of a targeted age range to show a certain narrative.

Considering the CDC is largely to blame for this clusterfrick of a situation due to their original inaction and then the testing fiasco, they can go frick themselves on their data.
