Because this one doesn't just cause a simple cold?

  Yes exactly. That’s because this one is still pandemic and not yet endemic.

  In kids it has basically that affect - no worse than the common cold. Maybe the big difference is that living adults didn't catch covid-19 as kids, because it is new. Since kids are growing up in a world with covid-19 they will catch it like any other covid-cold, priming their immune system so it never sends them to the hospital should they catch it again. Maybe this also explains why the common cold kills people sometimes. These unlucky people never caught that specific coronavirus as children, but rather when they were older and more vulnerable.
