Almost half of those in New York City who have tested positive for coronavirus are under 45 years old, but an overwhelming majority of them are surviving — accounting for just 3% of the city's COVID-19 fatalities, according to new data from the NYC Health Department.

Men in New York appear to be disproportionately affected, making up 56% of the cases and 61% of the deaths, according to the data, which was collected as of 5 p.m. Tuesday, when the city had 15,597 cases. The biggest outbreaks are in Queens, where 30% of the cases are concentrated, followed by Brooklyn, with 28% of the cases.

The hospitalization rate in the city is 18%, which is almost twice as high as the global average.
