I will show you data earlier this week. Some of the numbers will be different, but it illustrates the point. 0 to 17, only seven cases of coronavirus confirmed in the state of california.

Other countries have more data to work with because they have more cases and they have had it longer, and consider korea that did widespread testing there, and italy where only the sickest people were tested. Heres how the data show up on a graph. It shows a spike in young people that tested positive but were not that sick. The bars in white show the few positive cases in the same age range, the young and how many more there were among the elderly.
