Weekly number of COVID-19 hospitalizations in the U.S., Mar 2020 - Feb 2022, by age
The previous highest peak in the reported time interval of COVID-19 hospitalizations was the week ending January 9, 2021. A year later in the week ending January 8, 2022, a new peak was recorded. However, this time hospitalizations were more spread out in the age groups, with those under 65 years making up roughly 60 percent of total hospitalizations, compared to 50 percent back in January 2021.
This statistic illustrates the weekly number of COVID-19 associated hospitalizations in the United States from the week ending March 7, 2020 to February 5, 2022, by age group.
