Why weren't they vaccinated against that then?

There aren't vaccinations against the common cold.

A better question is, were their immune systems dysregulated from COVID/COVID vaccination allowing these adenoviruses to cause hepatitis?

The paper did NOT investigate this possibility, and the claim that they proved that the two were unrelated is written in weasel speak.

What they showed was that COVID and vaccination did not DIRECTLY cause the hepatitis.

The elephant in the room is whether COVID and COVID vaccination dysregulated the kids' immune systems, allowing the adenoviruses to flourish and cause the hepatitis.

The number of commenters who read the headline and believed everything without reading the study critically is... disappointing.

The number of commenters that miss the difference in scale is disappointing.

This affected 1000 people in 35 countries.

Covid has killed 6 million people so far.

>Covid has killed 6 million people so far.

Based on what definition? The CDC admitted that 94% of the deaths attributed to COVID in the United States were deaths with COVID. The average age of death was the same as the average life expectancy in the US. The average COVID "death" had over two (2) serious comorbidities.

I question your number.

> The CDC admitted that 94% of the deaths attributed to COVID in the United States were deaths with COVID.

100% of deaths attributed to COVID are _also_ deaths with COVID.

What's your point?

My point is that the PCR tests used to diagnose COVID were dialed up to 40 cycles, which results in "positive" results even when there's no infectious material in the person. This caused 94% of the deaths, by the CDC's own admission, to be misclassified as COVID when the true primary cause of death was something else.
