Was the population of adults that were infected early on likely to be in the same household as kids? The early pandemic disproportionately affected people that lived in communal settings like nursing homes, prisons, halfway houses, etc. You wouldn't find a lot of kids in those settings. And since kids were sent home from school, they didn't have a lot of interaction with the general public, either. So, it doesn't seem likely to me at all that kids were exposed to the same degree as adults.
