Which group is NOT significantly affected by COVID-19 according to current guidelines?

Young healthy adults are generally considered to be at a lower risk of severe outcomes from COVID-19 compared to older individuals and those with chronic health conditions. Current guidelines and studies have shown that while young healthy adults can contract the virus, they are less likely to experience severe symptoms, hospitalizations, or long-term complications associated with COVID-19. Therefore, this group is not significantly affected compared to vulnerable populations like older adults or individuals with chronic health conditions, such as diabetes, which have been identified as having a higher risk of severe illness and mortality due to the virus. This understanding helps in focusing public health measures and vaccination strategies toward those most at risk.
