Child Covid-19 hospitalizations reach a new high as schools reopen. That's not the only reason to protect kids from Delta, doctors say
Now, "child cases have increased exponentially, with over 750,000 cases added between August 5 and September 2," the American Academy of Pediatrics said.
"About 252,000 cases were added the past week, the largest number of child cases in a week since the pandemic began."
More than 55,000 children have been hospitalized with Covid-19 since August 2020, according to CDC data. Many of those children had no known preexisting conditions.While childhood Covid-19 deaths are still rare, that number is increasing. As of Wednesday, at least 520 children have died, according to CDC data.
