In the 18th century, families often lost half of their children to various diseases and malnutrition (smallpox, diphtheria, measles, meningitis, scarlet fever, whooping cough, cholera).
Now half the children at outdoor playgrounds are wearing masks because parents are paranoid about a disease that has about a 0% mortality rate on young children. People were a lot mentally tougher in the past.

I imagine that's what contributes to high spread, but most are adult age males, who have an incredible survival rate of covid.
