I'm not sure what you're talking about.  Both the Federalist piece and the
WSJ OpEd by Johns Hopkins researchers referenced are from today.   They are
not a year old and are current.   I suppose you will ignore Johns Hopkins
research because it doesn't agree with your narrative.

There is not substantial evidence of younger children easily spreading
CV-19 or appreciably impacting community spread , but if you're vaccinated,
you have nothing to worry about either way, right?  Right?

My vaccination status is none of your business so I'm not sure why you're
asking.   It has zero to do with the risk calculation around vaccinating
children.
