“No bad consequences”. Makes a great headline. Clear. Definitive. Absolute.

“a lot of children” subjective.
“is quite small” subjective and sounds very likely to be non-zero. Quite a climbdown from “no bad consequences”.
What he means to say is there’s some bad consequences but as long as the coin keeps coming in for saying the right things at the right time he thinks that’s a price worth paying.

You are far too word-pedantic, jfman. I’d stick to ranting about ‘linear’ if I were you.
The number of children who even know they’ve had Covid is vanishingly small. Nothing to see here, let’s move on.
