I have over 20 years of experience with this and you are correct. There are alot of factors at play here. For one parents will send their children in sick or with fevers. Parents don't want to take off from work to watch a sick child so they will give the child meds to mask symptoms and send in sick. Next is hygiene. Most children don't practice it . Next is social distancing. Children will not do it long term. So whatever Suzy has your little Johnny will have.
The size of this particular study discounts a lot of your concerns. That's why it's so important.
Of course. The burden should not be so heavily on property owners. I can understand why some younger people are opting out of home ownership. The property taxation in some areas is truly punitive even with mediocre schools and bad roads.
They’re still paying property taxes.
The landlords themselves aren’t, they’re charging the young people it in the rent.
There is dispute, but the article also mentions the breadth of that particular study and how strong it was in terms of design. It also does say that behavior is a part of why the 10 to 19 year olds are more likely to spread the disease. That doesn't make it any less risky, though, since I don't see anything stopping those 10 to 19 year olds from being any less gross than before.
Lemme just say that regardless of ages, I find that school aged kids do not seem to be able to keep masks on. Some are better than others, but I know the kids that I work will be hardpressed to keep the masks on.
Science matters. And the science tells us that the schools need to be re-opened. Contrary to the science, the evil Democrats and teachers' unions want to keep the schools closed and punish children to further their political agenda. There is no low the left won't sink to.
They must want to kill all the children!
That's the binary isn't it? You either care or you want to kill people according to the Dems.
I posted the ref from the CDC on the other thread: the death rate from CoViD in the 10-19 y/o age group is 1 in 100,000--that's 10x higher than the death rate from auto accidents. ..The rate in 5-10 y/o group is 3 in one million infections.
The death rate in the younger adult population 19-55 is 1 in 10,000---about the same risk as in driving. Are all those Liberal teachers petrified of returning to the classroom staying out of their cars while they're not at work now?
All those Super-Spreaders are heroes providing the herd immunity that will save us old-timers.
People claim it exists but with how many people lose antibodies two to three months after the infection. This makes sense with what Kayla Braxton dealt with. The WWE personality got it in March and was sick for just about a month. In late June, early July she tests positive again.

If there is no possibility to build herd immunity, then no vaccine will work, unless we're required periodic boosters.
So what's your solution? Wear masks and social distance for the rest of our lives?

I don't blame them. It would be hard for anyone to go eight hours straight (outside of lunch and maybe water fountain breaks) to keep on a mask.

Kids should not be forced to wear masks.
