COVID is not a random disease, it's a pandemic infecting many millions of people.
The rate of infection is highest among 'younger people' and though their rates of hospitalization are lower, there's still quite a few people.
And that they may have had 'other complications' like 'obesity' or 'asthma' is almost besides the point.
10% of those admissions is going to be, overall, a potentially serious health issue, affecting quite a lot of people.
We have yet to determine what all of that amounts to and how severe it will be, but it can't be dismissed.
