The death rate for 5-9 year olds is now 1.94 times higher than it was at the start of the pandemic and 2.6 times higher than normal.
If the current growth rate continues, the number of deaths among 5-9 year olds is expected to be 7.7 times higher in 10 years.

Can we stop insinuating that hospital acquired covid is “inevitable” or that those who die were going to “die anyways”?
Can we call it what it is? An epic failure of infection control to protect those who put their lives in your hands:

"We cannot talk about COVID in the past tense. It’s still with us, it still causes acute disease and Long COVID, and it still kills.
