The CS noted that this age group might not necessarily show symptoms of the novel coronavirus.
"The main age-group where infections are between ages 20-39. We call them ‘mosquitoes’ because a lot of them carry the virus but do not succumb to it," the Health CS said.
" Out of the 963 Covid-19 cases, 62% are male while 38% are female," he added.
