We'll have to disagree then on what is significant. 335 kids dying over the course of the pandemic is not to me:
There are an estimated 78,720,000 kids in the US under the age of 18. That means 0.0004256% kids have died from Covid. To put that in perspective, more than half of that number died of the flu over the same period (not trying to compare all of covid to the flu). Also, overall, more than 10,000 kids under the age of 18 died of other causes.
