Children aren't at risk from Covid at all. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-01897-w In the US, 340 children under 17 have died from Covid. Total. During the same period, 187 have died from the flu, and over 51,000 children have died from all causes:

They are more likely to be injured by these vaccines and neurotic parents stuffing them into masks for hours at a time.

"at all"? What? Tons of children end up with post-acute sequelae. Where are people getting this notion that the only possible negative outcome of viral or bacterial infections is death and that that's the only stat we should look at? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7927578/

Where are people getting this notion that the only possible negative outcome of unnecessary vaccination is death and that that's the only stat we should look at?

Didn't mention anything about vaccinations. Don't be disingenuous.

The guy above literally said "Children aren't at risk from Covid AT ALL".

A portion of parents are very worried about Covid in their children. These parents have sway with school administrators and local governments. All I am saying is that I doubt we get total easing of Covid restrictions until these kids have had ample chance to be vaccinated. I'm not making any arguments or claims about what you are taking about.

Do children who get infected spread it?

They do, but not as much as adults. They have much smaller noses. Seems silly but it's physics.
