A lot of little kids are getting COVID. Why?

The largest age group of active COVID cases in Victoria at the moment are kids, under 9 years old.

While hard to compare directly, it's a similar story in NSW.

Kids are currently unable to be vaccinated, leaving them vulnerable to infection as more COVID circulates through the community - though thankfully, disease is often very mild in children.

But on today's Coronacast, overseas experiences tell us that as more and more kids get COVID, we'll see more rare, but serious events popup.

Also on today's show:

* Are any of the rapid antigen tests approved/suitable for young children?

* Do we have another COVID treatment with that new Pfizer anti-viral drug?
