PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — There is disturbing information that a significant number of people under 35 in "low-risk" groups for coronavirus complications are complaining about symptoms like headache, loss of smell and taste, and burning sensations under the skin months after exposure and a relatively easy course with the virus. 

Many young people are wearing masks and practicing social distancing as a result of concern for others, but few are really concerned for themselves.

My suggestion is that young people also worry about themselves, as the book of COVID-19 is far from written, and every age group needs to be careful.
