It’s small, but I don’t believe it’s zero, and there’s concern about long-term organ damage even for those who survive.

My kids will be getting the vaccine.

I'm looking into it too. Can you provide more information on the long term organ damage? Do you know what the incidence of this kind of damage in children is?

I think commenter is referring to Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C) that specifically impacts children.
