The comparison to make isn't to the risk of dying from everything else, it's to the risk from vaccination.

Which there isn't really anything published for young children yet, but for age groups where use of a vaccine has been approved in the US (12+ more or less), the risk of severe side effects from vaccination is lower than the risk of severe illness.




I was responding to the description of the Covid death rate in children as a "massive risk". Clearly it is not.


Sure, the other poster wasn't making the right point either.
