COVID-19 still poses severe risk to unvaccinated teens: CDC
While most coronavirus hospitalizations occur in adults, the coronavirus still poses the threat of severe disease to teens, according to a new study issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Nearly a third of teens ages 12-17 hospitalized with COVID-19 ended up in the intensive care unit, with 5% ultimately being placed on ventilators.
The Infection Fatality Rate for 10-17yo is a whopping 0.00010, or 0.010%. I wasn’t specifically tracking it, but the 10-17yo death total hasn’t budged in months.
18-29yo: IFR 0.00063, or 0.063%.
The overall IFR, all ages, is 0.0202, or 2.02%.
Unless teens have serious co-morbidities (just like everyone else) their non-“vaccinated” ChinCOVID risk is probably a lot lower than the “vaccine risk.
