After the U.S. reported an unprecedented number of new pediatric COVID-19 infections last month, updated data released on Monday shows new cases among children have dropped for the second week in a row.

However, the organizations warn that pediatric cases remain "extremely high" and are still double the level seen in the summer delta surge.
