>People under 12 with healthy immune systems are at extremely low risks from covid.
I'm sure that's a great comfort to the parents of the ~2000 children that have died COVID related deaths[0] in the US during the pandemic.
And to the parents of the children who will die before we get this scourge under control.
Perhaps you should volunteer to speak at the funerals of such children so you can assure everyone there that it's no big deal?

- Retric 5y agoHow many of those children do you think had healthy immune systems? Kids with compromised immune systems are at risk, and there at increased risk the longer this goes on. Are you willing to talk at the funerals of all those kids? Also, your link is: At least 172 children had died as of Dec. not 2,000.

- Retric 5y agoI think you misunderstood that I expect this would kill fewer kids than our current approach.
