U.S. pediatricians say Covid cases in children are on the rise. Coronavirus cases in children in the United States have risen by 32 percent from about two weeks ago, a spike that comes as the country rushes to inoculate children ahead of the winter holiday season ....... More than 140,000 children tested positive for the coronavirus between Nov. 11 and Nov. 18, up from 107,000 in the week ending Nov. 4 ...... These cases accounted for about a quarter of the country’s caseload for the week ........ Children under 18 make up about 22 percent of the U.S. population. ....... “Is there cause for concern? Absolutely” ....... “What’s driving the increase in kids is there is an increase in cases overall.” ....... Experts have warned that children should be vaccinated to protect against possible long-Covid symptoms, Multi-system Inflammatory Syndrome and hospitalization. ........ hospitalizations and deaths among 5- to 11-year-olds were “really startling.” ....... it did not help that many schools had softened their safety protocols in the last few months. ...... Virus outbreaks forced about 2,300 schools to close between early August and October, affecting more than 1.2 million students .......... nearly a million young children had gotten vaccinated; 28 million are eligible. They receive one-third of the adult dose, with two injections three weeks apart. ....... All of the data so far indicates that the vaccines are far safer than a bout of Covid, even for children. ....... about three in 10 parents say they will definitely not get the vaccine for their 5- to 11-year-old child
