suggesting that the death rate for children is significantly lower than older, adult patients.
To combat the paucity of evidence around COVID- 19 and pediatric patients, U.K. researchers conducted the largest clinical study on children outside of China to date. The study spanned over 20 European countries and multiple age groups, ultimately including 582 children and adolescents between the ages of 3 days old and 18 years old with confirmed SARS- CoV-2 infection. The study found that the majority of patients under 18 years old experienced a mild disease and less than 1% of them died.
Children were more likely to become severely sick and be admitted to the ICU if they were boys, newborns or if they had underlying health conditions or lung infections.

This is good news for a change, but lets be realistic. This particular virus is relatively new, and scientists are still learning what it does in its entirety. No, I believe it'll be a couple of years before we genuinely know exactly what it does.
I have wondered if it’s because children drink Vitamin D fortified milk.
NO THANKS!

If it is YOUR CHILD THAT DIES, it does no to matter how rare
Good things kids dont live with parents or grandparents.
I don't think it would be safe to send your kids to go out the grocery store quite yet.

While that might be true, I would be concerned about the other flu strains that are out there.
Yes and the same applies to the vast majority of people that get infected. Mortality and hospitalization rates are presently relatively low after the surges early on. The ageed are the ones are significant risk.
It’s never been said they’d be the ones severely affected by Covid to start.
Coincidence this article comes out before school stars? At least it’s a sign of HOPE!
They just carry and kill everyone else. Cool story
No shit.
But we still don’t know the long term consequences. Parents still need to be careful. Not to mention that kids can transmit the virus to others.
Is it a, as is colloquially known now, b*omer rem*ver, then? 😶
One positive note anyway. Protect the children. †
Thank god
