I hope there is not a huge outbreak when the kids go back to school for their couple of days per week in September.

Does not surprise me. Viruses find away. Good thing cv-19 is not a big threat to the vast majority of people with healthy immune systems.

Go hide in a corner and don’t come out until you feel safe. That should be a couple of years at least.

I gave myself 10 minutes to debunk this. It took me 12. Here it is:

“Despite the value of the study by Han et al,13 there are limitations that leave important remaining knowledge gaps that are ripe for investigation. The first limitation is due to qualitative molecular detection methods, which are the standard clinical approach for testing of nasopharyngeal swab specimens. Qualitative positive or negative findings for molecular detection of virus may not necessarily correlate with infectivity. Sensitive molecular detection methods may detect viable, infective virus but also nonviable or fragments of RNA with no capability for transmission. “

Yup. Couldn’t tell if it was live virus kids were shedding, or dead fragments because their little immune systems kicked covid’s butt and spit out the pieces. I suspect the latter.

They didn’t attempt to culture any virus, to see if it was live or dead.

More BS.

No worries!!!

The only ones susceptible to infection, by these asymptomatic kids, are government employees.

How is a virus easily spread without symptoms if they have to reach to the back of my skull to even tell if I have it?

Do what you can to take care of yourself and your loved ones, and you’ll have done all that you can do. Accept whatever comes. It will generally be for the best. A plague is also mentioned in Prophets. That one will be rougher for many, but it will also be for the best in the end.

There is NO documented case of a non-symptomatic child giving the coronavirus to a parent or teacher.

Seeing as,
only a minute percentage of deaths due to Covid (and even less by Covid itself) were among those btwn 0-24 years old,
and that deaths that do occur had, on average, 2.6 additional conditions or causes1,
and with hypertension and obesity being the most common comorbidities2,
and about 80% of those who are infected have mild or no symptoms,3
and are usually no longer infectious after 10 days 4,
and likely develop a lasting effective immune response against possible further infections5,
and staying socially isolated results increases the risk of mental and physical health issues 6,
and researchers have estimated that those tested with SARS-CoV-2 in the four days after infection were 67% more likely to test (RT-PCR) negative even if they had the virus,
while those who have long since recovered can (PCR) test positive7;

Then it seems to me that rather than living in fear, those who are healthy (esp. healthy lungs) should not any more afraid of catching Covid (that is, any more than they would a cold) or being around those in like physical condition, but avoid close inside contact with those who not.
