Australians in their 20s are the most represented age group in the country’s statistics for confirmed novel coronavirus cases since the group is most likely to travel or party with returned travellers, experts said in a Guardian report.
Around one in five people contracting the virus were aged 20 to 29, according to data compiled by Australia’s federal health department.
The total breakdown is as follows: 11.3 percent of confirmed cases are those aged 25 to 29, 9.5 percent in people aged 60 to 65 –– onboard the cruise ship –– and 9.3 percent in those aged 20 to 25.
