Not true. Delta is showing increasingly worse numbers for younger people. Some children's hospitals are full from it. If you have another argument besides that one let's discuss.

- timr 5y agoSo, yet another article about "cases" that are "surging"...however: "The study does note that “it appears that severe illness due to COVID-19 is uncommon among children.” "Among the 23 states and New York City reviewed by AAP, children’s hospitalizations made up 1.3 – 3.5 percent of all COVID-19 hospitalizations for the week ending July 29." "According to the study, children were 0.00 – 0.26 percent of all COVID-19 deaths, and seven states reported zero child deaths among data from 43 states, New York City, Puerto Rico and Guam, with 0.00 – 0.03 percent of all child COVID-19 cases resulted in death in those areas." If you're trying to provide evidence that Covid does not present a serious threat to children, it'd be hard to do a better job.
