1:40 A top doctor at the University of Nebraska Medical Center warns about a new surge of COVID-19 cases with younger people. The state recorded more than 450 cases last week, an increase of 55% from the week before. Dr. James Lawler says the increase isn’t a surprise given the presence of the highly contagious delta variant and the number of unvaccinated people in the state. He also told an Omaha TV station the summer could get “ugly” for people in the 20-to-50 year age group. He predicted the worst part of the pandemic is coming for this younger demographic. Data from the CDC shows that the state’s rate of new cases per capita ranked 23rd among the states last week.
