Not true at all. Covid-19 doesn't infect people equally. It seems children are less likely to be infected at all, not just sickened.

It doesn't spread equally, because certain age groups are more likely to live in group housing.

And what is Florida's "population"? Lots of people vacation there. Do you count them?

There have reports both ways. It seems quite reasonable that nobody has been looking very hard where there aren't any symptoms. https://www.livescience.com/can-kids-get-coronavirus.html
