On it's face, this seems false.

I posted the actual numbers for kids a couple of days ago.
Kids barely get sick from this nor do they die even except for a handful of Cases. Maybe two handfuls.

That's not how that works

The Swiss came to the same conclusion, hence the reports that they plan on sending their children back to school.

i think this is fake news... my boss son had it (presumably, no test) right after quarantine started. his other kid got it (presumably, no test) 12 days after the first one fever broke. now the wife has a fever and a cough 9 days after the 2nd kid's fever broke.
where did she get it if they have all been quarantined, etc?

Most countries and states have zero deaths for people 18 and younger. The explanation is very low viral load. That would also explain why they are bad vectors and don’t transmit it the virus well.

Your boss was the carrier.
Or more likely, they got the flu.

The research coming from non-Chicom-owned WHO sources say they are poor vectors, not impossible ones.

Is a zero possibility here necessary to get back to doing some things we were previously doing?

Nope. Just saying we shouldn’t use exceptional cases like the poster I was replying to, to determine public policy.

A few months ago they were welding people into their apt's in Wuhan. Now theyre trying to tell us it aint no big deal. Screw them.

At a press conference in Bern, the head of infectious disease unit at the Federal Department of Public Health explained the science behind the decision to allow the family visits.
Dr Daniel Koch told journalists: “Children are very rarely infected and do not pass on the virus.
“That is why small children pose no risk to high-risk patients or grandparents."
However, children must be under 10 and be showing no signs of illness and grandparents are still advised to avoid prolonged contact with them.
quote:
The Swiss findings echoes results from another study carried out earlier this month by a French epidemiologist.
The French scientist examined the case of a nine-year-old British schoolboy who became infected with the virus while on a skiing holiday in France.
Despite coming into contact with over 170 people, the young boy did not infect anyone else.
The epidemiologist concluded that "children might not be an important source of transmissions of this novel virus".

So then elementary may have been ok, but middle and high school would've likely still needed to shut down between those who would've still been vectors as children and the adults working in their buildings.
FWIW, I think there's also something to be said about the child to teacher ratio in other countries compared to here that would've made it difficult to come back with social distancing. I know teacher contracts here allow up to a 31 to 1 ratio and that's not uncommon once you get out of elementary. I'm pretty sure I read the other day Sweden is 12-ish to 1?

Back to trusting sources based on the ability to support your narrative.
You trust them, pussy?
Quick, come up with a witty response

Wait, a 9 year old came in contact with 170 people on a ski trip?

On vacation.
Hotel, restaurants, shopping, just walking around.
You can easily come into contact with over 100 people.

Wait...I know this one. The doctor is the kid's mother.
