re: Interesting stats on how CV19 doesn't affect kids.

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.

Are they?

Has anyone proven they are vectors for older people?

I mean we know they’re vectors for far less contagious and far less deadly illnesses. I’m sure most parents can attest to an illnesses spreading from one their kids at one time or another.

Keep it shut down

Basically that every answer involves a "do we know" underscores how much we need to get on top of rampant testing in order to find more things out.

If there were some studies that actually tested 1000 kids who had been exposed (like in a household with a positive case) and showed that only an extremely low percentage of them were positive non-symptomatic potential spreaders then enough people would support opening schools.

"Maybe" and "perhaps" isn't going to get that done.

Average age of deaths was 28.

Yeah but average life expectancy was 30 at the time.

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…
