You didn't specify what age range you define as "children" but actually and sadly as of 1 month ago the number was 700 according to the CDC. The shot also protects from GETTING covid and the suffering many children go through while having it and after having it. It also somewhat reduces the spread because if one doesn't actually get it they can't spread it. Did you give your kids smallpox and polio and measles and the other vaccines to attend school? If you did why? Barely anyone child or adult "dies" from those illnesses. Maybe the reason for that is because MOST everyone has been vaccinated.
