Interesting stats on how CV19 doesn't affect kids.

Is the Louisiana death the premature baby that tested negative?
I’ve read conflicting stories on how it would be counted

The one death in LA was a 20week preterm baby who mom had covid. The baby did not have covid

There’s early studies out there that suggest it may be causing something else in kids. Saw in the news today.

My God could you imagine the Karens if this virus affected kids? We’d all be under house arrest.

The entire point of kids being "socially distanced" is the idea that they can be infected just as readily and spread it around.

So, a school could mean not one kid gets sick and dies but tons of them spread it around and bring it back home to all their families.


Perhaps that's not true but it's different stats than what you post which would show it.

To convince people about school's re-opening, we don't need opinions but high volume tests of kids to possibly reveal something like this:

For example: "5K kids that were in households with Covid+ person were tested and only 4% tested positive as non-symptomatic carriers. "

It’s not about protecting the kids

It’s about controlling the spread

Why aren’t people grasping this yet?

The CDC said in a report that examined data through April 2:
2,572 (1.7%) occurred in children aged <18 years

According to the CDC, during the 2017-2018 flu season, one of the worst in decades (over 61,000 deaths), there were 11,190,943 symptomatic infections and 643 deaths for those under 18.

So that is 1 death per 17,404 symptomatic infections in one of the deadly flu seasons in decades, 40% more deadly than the average flu season fatality rate estimate (0.14% vs. 0.1%).

Since NYC has detailed information regarding cases and deaths as well as the most reliable study on antibodies (to estimate the true number of infections). We know that they’ve had 5 deaths under 18 out of 3,555 cases, or 1 1 out of every 711 cases.

Since the antibody study indicates that the infections rate (24.7%) is about 13.16 times the case totals (1.88%), that extrapolates to about 46,768 infections for those under 18, or 1 out of 9,354 infections.

And considering that schools have been closed, which limits the primary vector for spread amongst that group, particularly the truly vulnerable (e.g., compromised immune system) my guess is that those under 18 are probably far less likely to have gotten infected than those 18 + (say 25 to 50 percent), which puts their fatalities at 1 out of every 2,338 to 4,677, which 3.7 to 7.4 times more deadly than the one of the most deadly flu season in decades, and 5 to 10 more deadly than the average seasonal flu.

I didn't have to look at any report. If this affected kids at all, dead kids would be on the news ever night, with the media blaming Trump.

We know that immune systems develop due to exposure to viruses among other things. Each virus an immune system is exposed to imprints that immune system with the method of destroying that virus. BUT, the imprinted immune system recognition of a new virus is critical. The theory is that immune systems are mistaking the Covid-19 virus for another virus the immune system was exposed to earlier. In this case, people under the age of 18 are not contracting this virus. Could it be that people older than 18 were exposed to a different virus over 18 years ago and their immune systems are mistaking Covid-19 for this earlier virus?

This is the theory as to what happened in the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic. The global data shows that not only were younger healthy people dying at a greater rate, but there was a significant spike of deaths for people who were 28 years old. In 1890, 28 years prior, there was another less lethal global flu outbreak. This was called the ‘Russian flu’. Could it be that infant’s immune systems were imprinted with the correct response for this Russian flu and later were somehow mistaking the Spanish flu for the Russian flu? Thus the lack of immune progress against the Spanish flu and resulting cytokine storm.

So following this rabbit hole, could it be that people today older than 18 have immune systems imprinted by pre-2002 viruses which are mistaking the Covid-19 for the earlier virus? Thus the ineffectiveness of their immune systems. But if so, why no cytokine storm reports presently? And critically to the point, the immune systems of people born in 2002 or after would not have been imprinted with the wrong virus. Thus the wrong immune response is not present in their systems. Of course, that would mean that the correct immune response IS present in their systems…
