Note that I said healthy children. Pretty much all of the children and teenagers who have died in the US, and elsewhere, have been in a risk group. Diabetes, usually.

If your child is in a risk group, you should be worried, and you should want that child to get vaccinated as soon as possible.

If not, it's extremely irrational to worry about your kid dying of covid because that's in lightning-strike territory.

About 400 American children have died with the majority having existing comorbidities. 50% of children have "recovered" from Covid and would already possess some immunity. Certainly its questionable whether 99.9% most kids stand to benefit much from the vaccine anyway.
