Latest CDC Data Shows That Vaccinated Children Aged 5-11 Are Now MORE Likely to Catch Covid Than Their Unvaccinated Peers

According to the latest data from the US Center for Disease Control (CDC), the Covid infection rate among vaccinated children aged 5-11 is now higher than it is among their unvaccinated peers for the first time since the data started being collected. 
The flip has been in the making for months, as the infection rate for vaccinated children has been creeping closer to the rate of unvaccinated cases for quite some time, eventually surpassing the latter in the week ending on Feb 19th. 
That week, which is the latest available data, the rate of Covid cases detected in children aged 5–11 was 122 per 100,000 for the unvaccinated and 131 per 100,000 for the vaccinated. 
Just one week earlier, the rate was 248 and 244 per 100,000 for the unvaccinated and vaccinated respectively. And a month prior, the infection rate was nearly 1,800 per 100,000 in unvaccinated and over 1,340 per 100,000 in the vaccinated during the week ending Jan. 15. 
So, despite a meteoric drop-off in cases – over 10× in just a month – the vaccinated case rate lept above the case rate for the unvaccinated. 
What’s most concerning though, especially with the Federal Government’s continued push to vaccinate younger and younger children, is that the most recent data on 5–11-year-olds shows that they, among all other vaccinated age groups, had the highest infection rate in the US.
