Pediatric Deaths
How many children died ini your state - of COVID-19 - or anything else?
My friend Phil Kerpen (@kerpen) has put together an excellent table showing pediatric deaths by state since Jan 1, 2020. Since that start date over 60,000 children have died of any cause and 558 pediatric deaths have been attributed to COVID-19.
That’s 0.93% of all deaths during that period of time.
So, for example, in Massachusetts, there have been 7 child deaths with COVID-19 and 750 deaths of children from other causes. Numerous states have registered zero of fewer than 10 deaths over this 22 month period.
As my friend Gummi put it: Parents you have 100 problems and COVID is just 1 of them.
I wonder if he could look at the pediatric deaths over time, versus standard vaccinations? There's been a suggestion that pediatric deaths were lower in 2020 due to delayed office visits, delayed pediatric vax. https://www.bmj.com/content/369/bmj.m2392/rr-1
4 from 0-17 according to the NJ death certificate data. There has been no additional deaths since March 2021. More children drown.
