Bloomberg Shows Trump Correct on Gist of Remarks Censored by Twitter (https://steemit.com/cover-19/@munkle/bloomberg-shows-trump-correct-on-gist-of-remarks-censored-by-twitter)
According to a Bloomberg report (https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2020-05-07/comparing-coronavirus-deaths-by-age-with-flu-driving-fatalities), young children have a greater chance of dying of the common flu than they do of COVID-19. President Trump has been censored and banned by Twitter for essentially making the same point.
Trump was addressing a crisis which has transformed in four months from a request to the public to help "flatten the curve" for 14 days, to a daily vigil on "new cases." The initial fear professed by the government's chief disease-fighter, Dr. Anthony Fauci, was that the US would run out of ventilators for the neediest patients. The US is now a net exporter (https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/remarks-president-trump-whirlpool-corporation-manufacturing-plant/) of the machines.
The overall survival rate for COVID is now estimated by the CDC to be very similar to flu, 99.8% (https://reason.com/2020/05/24/the-cdcs-new-best-estimate-implies-a-covid-19-infection-fatality-rate-below-0-3/). The commonly accepted overall survival rate for flu is 99.9%.

Bloomberg (https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2020-05-07/comparing-coronavirus-deaths-by-age-with-flu-driving-fatalities) reported in May:
For children [under age 15] the risk of dying from Covid-19 appears to be much less than that of dying from influenza and pneumonia even in the most pessimistic of...scenarios.
The report included the following graphic, sourced from the US Center for Disease Control.

Although children are not "immune" from the coronavirus, as Trump incorrectly stated, they almost always quickly become immune, most often without showing symptoms.
