As Vaccinations Continue, 45% of Millennials Say They’re OK With Socializing in Public Places

Nearly half of millennials surveyed say they’re comfortable socializing in public, about twice the percent of baby boomers who are more likely to continue to obey public health guidelines. The stories quote Thomas A. Russo, MD, professor of medicine and chief of the Division of Infectious Diseases, who said it’s not clear yet what kinds of long term consequences the virus causes in young people. “It's possible that younger people that are getting infected may have taken a hit to their hearts, lungs, brains, kidneys. But that message just doesn't seem to have resonated with them at all either.”
