Age Distributions

Following up on yesterday's missive, the state of Florida provides some of the best data on CV19 demographics. The below histograms show age distributions for cases, hospitalizations, and deaths in the state of Florida.

Good data here on why age of infected matters so much. Those infected now are far younger & have far greater outcomes than the elderly. https://t.co/PCxumjmXyl

The shift in age with severity is apparent.

Note, however, that these data are cumulative since the onset of CV19. In their current form, theAgy don't provide a sense of how demographics may have changed recently. If, as we discussed yesterday, age of hospitalization has shifted lower along with the recent trend of lower aged infections, we need to parse the data in a different way.

For example, two histograms that divide data before and after, say, the first week in June would help us see whether the demographics of hospitalizations (and other indicators) have changed recently.
