'3,500 kids are in hospital, not 100,000': CDC Director Wallensky corrects liberal Justice Sotomayor's wildly false claim that 'over 100,000 children are seriously ill with COVID, many on ventilators'

     'We have over 100,000 children, which we've never had before, in serious condition, and many on ventilators,' Sotomayor said on Friday
    Walensky contradicted Sotomayor's claims during a Fox News Sunday segment
    'The number is not 100,000 It's roughly 3500 in hospitals now?' asked Bret Baier
    'Yes. In fact...they're still about 15 fold less than hospitalizations of our older age or age demographic,' Walinsky answered, adding they were vastly unvaccinated
    As of January 8, the number of hospitalization in children in the US is roughly 5,000, while the CDC has reported 84,000 cumulative since August, 2020

CDC Director Rochelle Walensky contradicted Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor's incorrect claim that there are 100,000 pediatric COVID hospitalizations on Sunday. 

Justice Sotomayor, a liberal Associate Justice appointed by former president Obama, exaggerated the number of severe COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations among children as she attempted to convince conservative Supreme Court justices that President Joe Biden's vaccine mandate for businesses should be enforced.

'We have over 100,000 children, which we've never had before, in serious condition, and many on ventilators,' Sotomayor said on Friday.

Rasmussen Reports
@Rasmussen_Poll
A shatteringly bad outing outside of the protected zone of friendly cable TV nets. Almost every figure he (politely) requested was - "we're working on it."

Asked "how many of the 836,000 deaths in the U.S. linked to Covid are FROM Covid or how many are WITH Covid," CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky says "those data will be forthcoming."

Why? Because Biden's Covid response is a complete failure, and she's looking for some way to make these numbers smaller.

CDC cites obesity as culprit for hospitalizing children with COVID-19
(KSNT) — Childhood obesity in America was already putting children at risk for poor health, now it’s hospitalizing children and adolescents who have contracted coronavirus.

In a study released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, researchers found approximately two-thirds of COVID-19 patients aged 12-17 were obese, and the length of stay in the hospital was twice that of non-obese adolescents.
Omicron could be ‘beginning of the end' former Trump health official says

The CDC found that children with an underlying condition — 34.7% — were also more likely to be admitted to the intensive care unit than children without an underlying condition (23.9%).  ... source

3,500 instead of 100,000 that's quite a substantial mistake.  It is really sad and frankly disturbing that one of our justices on SCOTUS is so misinformed!!

1,840 children died from domestic abuse in 2019.
94 children ages 5-11 died from COVID in 2020.
What is the real problem here?
