The first link said "studies quantifying the number of cases of long COVID in kids have varied widely." That first link also did not seem to indicate if Covid was diagnosed with blood test or PCR fragment amplification or flu-like symptoms. The second link was for "people". There is a significant lack of rigor in the diagnosis and studies of covid in children, though overall mortality in children is low. For children in decent health, the emergency treatment does not seem warranted until the typical new drug side-effect studies have been completed. Until the long-term safety studies are in, there are safe alternative prophylactics but those don't make much profit nor yearly recurring booster profits.
