I don't know if the situation in the US is that bad to justify general vaccination of children, but at least in Europe it's explicitly not recommended by the appropriate decision body in several countries. Both the STIKO (German vaccine advisory board) and UK JCVI (Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation) only advise certain children between 12-18 to get the vaccine. Here's JCVI's statement on myocarditis for example: "There are emerging reports from the UK and other countries of rare but serious adverse events, including myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) and pericarditis (inflammation of the membrane around the heart), following the use of Pfizer-BioNTech BNT162b2 and Moderna mRNA-1273 vaccines in younger adults. [...] Data on the incidence of these events in children and young people are currently limited, and the longer-term health effects from the myocarditis events reported are not yet well understood" Source: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-vaccination-of-children-and-young-people-aged-12-to-17-years-jcvi-statement/jvci-statement-on-covid-19-vaccination-of-children-and-young-people-aged-12-to-17-years-15-july-2021 https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-vaccinat... Initially I posted that your range of 12-29 doesn't match the 12-18 range of the patients in this study, but it seems to be a direct quote. I can't understand why they mix up things so badly, because obviously there's different patterns of behaviour, risks and benefits for 12-18 and 19-29. They even say "Despite the risks of myocarditis associated with vaccination, the benefits of vaccination likely outweigh risks in children and adolescents" right before giving an age range which includes adults to justify their statement.
