very common fallacy: absolute vs relative risk. kids have a miniscule risk of dying from covid (0.01%?) therefore reducing this already very very small risk isn't doing much at all. Of course kids do not require an experimental vaccine for a not at all very lethal viral infection.

You're not even guaranteed to get infected (I still haven't been.) So you need to apply that prior as well.

The virus will be around forever so unless you live in a sterile bubble everyone will be occasionally exposed. So infection isn't 100% guaranteed, but it's close.

How do you know you haven't been infected? Asymptomatic cases are common, and most people aren't getting frequent tests.
