5-year-old Georgia boy dies of Covid-19 as cases surge nationwide.

that unvaccinated populations, including young children, are among the most vulnerable people.

Covid-19 vaccines have been authorized on an emergency basis only for people ages 12 and up in the U.S. As of Thursday, more than 4 million children had been diagnosed with Covid-19, about 14.2 percent of all cases, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics. Nearly 340 children ages 17 and younger have died from Covid-19, according to the latestMitchell and Summey described Wyatt as having been healthy before he became sick with the coronavirus.

"He was so healthy and happy," Summey said."I mean, he's had the sniffles here and there, but nothing ever. It just got a hold of him, and it just took him. It's crazy.""I keep saying they're just shells of what were human beings. It's like their soul is gone," she said. Mitchell said in her statement that"all we know is a bright light has left" and that Wyatt has"left rainbows everywhere for us to see."

"There was so much life in this 5-year-old boy. So much joy. So maybe it's not the quantity of life that we will miss. But the quality of life. That was pure bliss," she said.

So so sorry for their loss such a beautiful bright little boy.

So so sad.

Dammit

Put f-ing masks on your kids when you go shopping with them!!!! It´s not that hard ....

🙏🧸😥

So much for children not dying…tragic. All because some folks and we know who they are, refused to wear masks and get vaccinated. Ugh.

So sad😥

Most of the time NBC, MSNBC, CNN and others don't tell the whole story.

Dam.

Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaad!!!!!!

Sadly, this story will be repeated many times in the next days/weeks/months. Kids will get it & die, so anyone that refuses the vaccine is responsible for all those deaths. There is a special place in hell for those that could have prevented it by getting a damn shot but refused.

this is very sad news , should not be happening under the watch of our scientists

Heartbreaking

😔💕💐💜

What a sweet little boy. My heart breaks for his family.

UrieBay 💔💔💔😢😷

These defenseless kids will b collateral damage from those who refuses to get vaccinated. All u ppl who r able, had to do was take the vaccine. Ur idiocy, ridiculous political stance are causing deaths like this little fellow.

🙏

Oh lord. No.

Remember the pro-life party is here to make light of a child's death. Pro-life Until birth.

Lots of kids got shot to death today but not worth reporting?

Where can I get a Delta variant covid test that is rampant in America? Sounds like everyone has it...so I'd like to be tested...

And this little sweet boy is the reason everyone that can get vaccinated should get vaccinated to protect the little ones like him that can’t vaccinated as of yet, it’s selfish as all get out not to get the shot, maybe it might help if you could imagine this being your child 🙏🏿

.mtgreenee laughed at kids dying 2 days ago.

This is beyond tragic and sad!!! My deepest condolences for the family and I wish they will find some peace. Fly little angel

'Children younger than two who are given antibiotics are more likely to have a number of ongoing illnesses or conditions later in life...' How long before we're told the down side to these DNA vaccinations? 🤔 Both go into the body.

Oh God. If antivaxxers spread the more potent Delta variant, this makes me worry about my 5 year old nephew & vulnerable children. I'd home-school until the pandemic is officially over. Not worth the risk at all 😥

Exactly what is the level of tragedy that will convince Red-State America to join reality? is it one dead boy? 10? a certain percentage of the population? until iteratively stronger variants of COVID-19 cause more death? I can't wait to find out.

How many did this little cherub encounter who were not vaccinated due to ignorance? DAMN THEM!!!!

If the adults would have vaccinated maybe, just, maybe😓

Must have missed all the articles where kids die of flu

💔

Keep tweeting this every 30 minutes peacock. Blood on your hands.

The right doesn't care.

he had long hair so republicans probably don't care.

Media goons talk about this ad nauseum now. It’s an outlier. Sad but still an outlier!!!

COVID-19 Cases In U.S. Triple Over 2 Weeks Amid MisinformationCOVID-19 cases have tripled in the U.S. over two weeks amid an onslaught of vaccine misinformation. I report info to TwitterSafety, and they do nothing about all the lies on this platform. They need an option to report misinformation. I think now is the time to revisit Section 230 which gives media platforms blanket coverage to protect them from any liability.
