A new study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that the median age of people with COVID-19 in the U.S. has declined over the spring and summer, with Americans in their 20s now accounting for more cases than people in any other age group.

The increase in COVID-19 cases among people in their 20s was striking. In May, 93,741 Americans between the ages of 20 and 29 were newly diagnosed with the disease. That figure swelled to 149,761 in June, 240,105 in July and 189,366 in August.
