Original Note:
The tweet misrepresents the very source it referenced: "Among children and young people aged 0 – 19 years in the US, COVID-19 ranked EIGHTH among all causes of death..." COVID-19 is ranked first in deaths caused by infectious / respiratory diseases (as per the same article). https://www.ox.ac.uk/news/2023-01-31-covid-19-leading-cause-death-children-and-young-people-us
