Scientists from Dresden Technical University said children may act as a brake on the chain of infection.” Professor Reinhard Berner, the head of pediatric medicine at Dresden University Hospital, the leader of the study, said the results suggested the virus does not spread easily in schools. He said it’s rather the opposite in a press conference. “Children act more as a brake on infection. Not every infection that reaches them is passed on.” This means the majority of school children do not get infected themselves, despite an infection in the household.
There's this, and there's also stories of 90 kids at a daycare getting infected, hong Kong shutting schools down early to stop the spread, infants catching this, etc.
I don't even know what to believe anymore, for every "expert" there's a equally "expert" news story saying the opposite
frick 2020, I wish we could abolish social media (except for TD)
Too many agendas and fake narratives on both sides

Title is misleading, Lafayette is starting Aug 16, face to face, with a virtual option

New York Times (I know y’all hate them) also just ran a story that implies kids 10-19 years old spread the virus at an at least equal rate as adults. There’s just a lot of conflicting information out there. I don’t envy the people making the decisions.

Same brother, this is unprecedented, said the exact thing you just said the other day at work, since we are prepping for this virtual stuff

Only thing we know is that the fatality and hospitalization rate for covid 19 in people under 18 is less than the Flu even with the vaccine. So, if people say we need to protect kids from getting sick, we will have to close schools every year during flu season.
Only valid argument to keep schools closed is to prevent spread. Younger kids don't seem to spread it, older kids might. Teachers will spread it to each other. Masks and limited capacity in schools will help prevent spread. Kids who live with at risk people can choose to do virtual.
