Not assuming that at all. I will assume that a vaccinated child is far less likely to die of COVID than one that is not vaccinated. While the mortality rate among children is low, they are at some degree of risk if they "catch the disease". As far as the "danger" of the vaccine---that's a bunch of hype from anti-vax groups with an agenda that is adverse to the common good and is completely unsubstantiated. And I don't know how much better natural immunity is vs. the vaccines, but I can guarantee it isn't "infinitely"
