As Los Angeles County announced the death of a teenager from possible coronavirus complications on Tuesday, Gov. Gavin Newsom warned that California’s young people have been disproportionately testing positive for the virus.

Half of the more than 2,000 Californians who’ve tested positive for COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus, are between the ages of 18 and 49, Newsom said in his daily evening Facebook Live briefing.
