Somehow I don't think this is a problem only in New Hampshire.

Children, even young children, are not in general subject to the same risks nor are they as severe as the risks faced by elderly people with co-morbidities.

At least that is my understanding, and this graph by which we can use hospitalization as a proxy for severity.

I firmly believe we should be expending our resources and applying restrictions to people in a risk tiered way.

Instead, like most government endeavors, it is one size fits all. So you treat young and healthy sailors on an aircraft carrier the same as an 82 year old man with COPD, asthma, or any number of co-morbidities.

I think this approach is stupid and self destructive.

So, given that children don't react the same way, and we have to get people back to work, shouldn't we look at treating children and young people in general differently? It just makes sense to me.

I don’t know how you’d keep 8 toddlers away from each other at all.

I thought kids were supposed to be immune to this or something.

Why the concern?
