The average age of a person who died from COVID-19 during the week ending Sept. 11 was 58 years old, according to the Milwaukee County medical examiner.

Out of the individuals who died from COVID-19 during the week, 67, or 91 percent had at least one other medical complication.

The American Academy of Pediatrics and the Children's Hospital Association stated that in the United States, children represent about 9 percent of all COVID-19 cases. The Mayo Clinic points out that kids of all ages can catch COVID-19 but most don’t become as sick as adults and some show no symptoms at all.

Figures are accurate as of Sept. 13.
