But that's the guess you're making.

LOL. Do you have kids? Come on, admit it...if you do you just know they will chase each other around licking their hands and yelling Corona corona! Kids are idiots.



And I think folks miss something. Yeah sending them back to school might kill ten thousand of them or so, but more importantly it will give a focal point for the virus to spread and then affect the community.


the hospitalizations are interesting, but only in relationship to the community. 23% up for kids...whats it up for overall? Oh...34%. So if im looking at those data points it seems to me that kids are still doing better then expected.....which is what matches our current understanding.


So...what am I missing then?

Well, it's certainly beyond the control and understanding of those who ignore and/or lie about it or call children "the stoppers".

FL has 4.3MM children. 300 hospitalized means 0.007% of them are in the hospital. What are the pre-existing conditions of this population hospitalized? 31K cases means 0.7% of them have tested positive.

Florida broke its own single-day death record yesterday.


What is DeSantis going to do about this???
How many hospitals are in the state?

8000 tested positive for it in a week's time - - before they've gone back to school. And, of course, the kids are going to be bringing it back into the house as a whole then.

The population of people 18 and under in Florida is approx. 4,000,000.

See if you math wizards can figure out the percentage of kids in Florida that are hospitalized by Covid.
Are they in the hospital WITH Covid or BECAUSE OF Covid?
