According to BUsiness insider, Flu is more dangerous for children than COVID: https://www.businessinsider.com/coronavirus-compared-seasona...

COVID is about 5 times more dangerous for 20 - mid forty year olds, but still quite low, in terms of mortality.

Honestly, I'd bet flu would be more dangerous among the older were it not for vaccines.

You shouldn't be downvoted. CDC data also shows that influenza is more dangerous than COVID-19 for children.
