Here's many articles that suggest otherwise, including ones looking at delta in UK:  https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/990789.page

I'm having a hard time finding scientific articles in that thread.
I see NYTimes, Slate, Guardian, DW, nbc news, npr, time, fortune,
Forbes (admittedly it does discuss an AAP report that states that the last week has added 77,000 seventy-seven thousand more positive children),

BMJ is a medical journal, but the link is to an editorial form mid-June that says 'nothing to see here, most kids coming into the hospital with covid are coming i for broken bones' - contrast that with Dr. Kline's statement, or today's statement by the Surgeon General.
A lot of posters' opinions minimizing the threat, then it's kid vaccine hesitancy. 
You demand a LOT of support to posters' statements (and to statements posters haven't made "prove delta is worse in kids than in adults!") but that linked thread....  [/quote]

Wait are you saying you are more inclined to listen to Dr. Kline's interview statements than an editorial in BMJ with citations? Having been involved in writing editorials for major journals in other disciplines, like Nature, I can tell you that they don't just let anyone write, and there is a review process.[/quote]

There have been plenty of instances of prestigious medical journals publishing editorials that did not age well. This one is less than 8 weeks old, and it isn't aging well. [/quote]
*in the past 18 months. My statement about med journals editorials aging poorly was narrowed to this pandemic.[/quote]
