England's chief medical officer says some young people have been left in intensive care after contracting coronavirus.
Prof Whitty said it was important to stress that not every young person who contracts coronavirus will"breeze through" it.
"I think it's important we don't give the impression that every single young healthy person is just going to breeze through this."The two experts were speaking at the Academy of Medical Sciences in London where Prof Whitty said it was"improbable" that a COVID-19 vaccine would be developed in six months.He also admitted that he expects to look back at the handling of the virus crisis and think"we could have done something slightly different".
