another scare tactic....
New study blah blah
Another bull sh*t “new study!” They must keep the American Sheeple in line!
Crying wolf again. Don’t buy into it.
W.C. Fields was right!
Opening schools provides a new path for the virus to spread, though kids ‘get around’ a lot anyway.
With enough testing though it also provides a way to stop the spread.
Close call IMHO.
This is ridiculous, unless that kid was monitored and tested 24/7 for several weeks there is no way to know how long he had COVID, the global pandemic ruse to damage Trump’s re-election becomes that more obvious...
Nothing I see in the study shows asymptomatic TRANSMISSION. Asymptomatic with virus? Yes. Transmitting? No. They found “detectable virus” using swabs, which is vastly different from transmitting the virus to others.
As they note: “Qualitative positive or negative findings for molecular detection of virus may not necessarily correlate with infectivity.”

IOW, more Fear Porn. Avoid people sneezing, coughing or complaining of a fever. Your odds of staying healthy are excellent.
I hope there is not a huge outbreak when the kids go back to school for their couple of days per week in September.
....
Sorry to sound like an A$$hole to you, but most of us are sick to death of this nonstop concern! People have had their lives destroyed by this bug! How about some concern for them?
Conflicts with other study that said no symptoms, no spread.
The Study is of “asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic children”, includes children with symptoms! Lying Headline, correct headline would have been symptomatic children whose symptoms weren’t recognized or detected could spread virus.
This is the source study and source article

Funny how that didn’t occur in Europe. Funny as hell.
Why not? I hope there is a huge outbreak among the children. They are largely immune and asymptomatic and they will help us get to herd immunity.
Stop being a dupe.
Know what concerns me?
All the OTHER viruses and bacteria that kids have been sheltered from.
How many people and kids are going to start getting continuously sick because they’ve lost that hearty build-up of immunity from being out with others....
Maybe years. Probably for the rest of their lives! They’ll be Typhoid Marys forever!!!
Why do you post this crap? There is no evidence that asymptomatic people, especially children, can infect others. European countries have had kids in school for months with no outbreaks.
Does this article say that Koreans are hospitalizing kids with no symptoms or am I misunderstanding?
We get exposed to flu virus every time we shop at a store. If a test for flu was done we would test positive as well. But our body fights it off by creating anti-bodies.
A positive test for covid-19 is no different.
We need an excuse to keep the schools closed, so here’s your “study”.
We made it special just for you guys.
Enjoy.
If it comes from the NY Post you’ve got to know it’s fake.
