CNN — Covid-19 infections have continued to increase “exponentially” among children across the US, and now account for nearly 26% of all cases reported nationwide, according to data published Monday. Children still less likely to suffer serious disease The weekly case number reported Monday is about a 215% increase in cases among children since the week of July 22-29 when the group counted 71,726 cases. As of Sunday, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported 548 children younger than 18 had died for Covid-19 in the United States. Marta Lavandier/AP/FILE Vaccines could be ready by the end of the year Health experts, like CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky, have said that public health agencies are working to have a vaccine ready for younger children by the end of the year.
