Document: The ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has caused over 1,133,000 detected cases of COVID-19 illness worldwide and claimed over 62,700 lives as of April 5, 2020 [1] . Various forms of social distancing measures/testing practices were implemented in different countries/regions in order to stem the spread of the epidemic. Under those social distancing measures, rates of contact between individuals in different age groups are expected to significantly depart from the regular mixing patterns [2] . Under such circumstances, there is a great deal of uncertainty regarding the role of different age groups in propagating the SARS-CoV-2 epidemics in different countries. While disease is most severe in older age groups, a sizeable share of COVID-19 related hospitalizations in Western countries belongs to individuals aged 20-55y [3] . A study of close contacts of COVID-19 cases in China [4] found comparable rates of infection with SARS-CoV-2 in different age groups. A better understanding is needed of the role that different age groups play in propagating the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic during its current stage.
