Curious - as we are not vaccinating children (most anyway) should we expect an increase in hospital admissions for children?

Or is there something I’m missing?

Our schools have had delta but not omicron. Given having had delta won't give you protection against catching omicron it's going to be ugly.

Also shows why herd immunity is not a good strategy. Everyone was saying 'oh well, the kids will all have had it so they'll be protected'. Nope.

This is what Prof Pagel from Indie Sage was saying. Mostly Delta in kids (that was last week).
