None of that is the kind of evidence that you'd use to justify the kind of hyperbole you used above. Kids definitely don't seem to get sick from this disease with the frequency we'd expect. And this should absolutely inform policy on the margins. You'd open a school before a senior's choir for sure, etc...

But you don't play games here. This age dependency is just barely measured, not understood well AT ALL (it actually runs counter to the way almost all other respiratory viruses work!), and based on measurements that at best are a few months old. Most of the papers in this space are preprints, peer review is just now catching up.

Just stop. A few links doesn't make for proof in this space. People will die if we get it wrong.

Yes, people will die if we get it wrong by engaging in a destructive policy of lockdown.

That's your problem. You and everyone in your camp acts as if all the uncertainty exists in the "herd immunity" side. It doesn't. The risks of SARS-2 infection are much better bounded than the risks of unprecedented lockdown and economic destabilization. Full stop.
