Recent analysis by several Variant Hunters has confirmed that BA.3.2.* is preferentially infecting children. This pattern has repeated in every country examined, which AFAIK are all of those with data by Patient age.
For example, here’s a comparison of recent samples from New York. For children, BA.3.2.* is 11% of samples, vs just 1.4% of adults, so around 8X more common among children.
I have integrated the Patient age data from GISAID and done my best to clean and aggregate it on a new "by Age" page in my dataviz.
Look, we have known for more than half a decade that COVID-19 is airborne, we shouldn't need to have this fight.
When an article gets something wrong to the point that it is dangerous to the public, that is the definition of a public danger. So when this piece https://theconversation.com/covid-19-variant-ba-3-2-is-spreading-quickly-across-us-a-doctor-explains-what-you-need-to-know-279447 says
First, wash your hands
if this bothers you too, you're welcome to complain until they correct (and to hopefully make their editors adjust to correct in future):

Warning though: that 2nd link is a heavy minimizer at times:
there’s no indication that it’s any more dangerous or that it causes more severe disease than the COVID-19 variants that have circulated widely over the past few years. [2]
yeah well there's no indication it's any LESS dangerous than the rest which are ongoing costing us lives and healthspans, the trillion dollar a year economic loss, all the human cost from "about half" of healthcare workers with Long COVID, the double-digit general population with Long COVID, is there?
Still no indication it's mild, then, hm? None at all, zero? OK. Moving along.
It's 2023 - no it's 2024. It's 2025. No, no, it's 2026! And we have another variant that defeats vaccination to date:
BA.3.2-derived lineages exhibit escape from vaccine-elicited neutralising antibodies [1]
And another variant that is defeated by N95s 
and clean air, because
70 to 75 genetic changes in its spike protein [2]
can't stop aerosolized particles from being trapped by effective filtration.

The Human Cost of Failing to Name COVID 'Airborne'

"Is it possible that health-care workers were inadequately protected during the pandemic — and continue to be unnecessarily exposed to serious risk?"

Het afweersysteem van patiënten met post-covid maakt antistoffen die mogelijk een rol spelen bij het ontstaan van hun klachten. Het eigen immuunsysteem faalt dan en keert zich ten onrechte tegen het lichaam. Dat wijst een studie uit onder leiding van onderzoekers van Amsterdam UMC en het UMC Utrecht. De resultaten uit de studie maken de weg vrij voor de ontwikkeling van nieuwe behandelingen. Denk aan gerichte therapieën die schadelijke antistoffen kunnen verwijderen of neutraliseren.
