Why are you deleting threads about COVID 19 anxiety syndrome people?

[Anonymous]

They are off their rocker and I see nothing wrong with posting that they are overreacting and ignoring statistics about vaccinated people and their risks as well as the statistics that kids are very low risk to suffer from severe COVID. These are not antivax posts. On the other hand you seem to be ok with posts calling us, vaccinated people that think kids should be in schools and move on with life trolls, stupid and trumpers.

I don't know what thread you are talking about but there are plenty of threads that cover those topics.

Thread about kids being similar risk or less to vaccinated 40 year olds has tons of deleted posts, thread that COVID anxious people are a thread to our society, posts that kids went to school in much of the U.S. in person and most are fine.

I removed posts from the thread because they attacked other posters rather than addressing the topic.

NP. I didn't see the thread. But if PP is an example of the level of discourse, I'm glad it was removed.

It has a linked NIH study. Yet, the thread based on a SURVEY about long covid in kids in Israel is still there?

I was annoyed that the study about anxiety get deleted too. People are free to attack anyone who discusses accepting some level of risk as horrible parents and COVID deniers, and to post fear-mongering articles with no factual detail. However, if you even mention that anxiety might be driving the zero COVID approach to risk, any attempt at nuanced discussion is deemed inappropriate and immediately shut down.

One interesting thing with the reporters is that certain false statements are tolerated as long as they are included in a fear based discussion, particularly anything relevant to school measures, but in discussions about vaccinations, these same false statements are being deleted as anti-vax (as they should be).

Posters in the school forums continue to state that vaccinated people become infected with and spread COVID the same as unvaccinated people, which is not established, and in fact, has not been demonstrated to be true in numerous studies. It's ok to spread misinformation if relates to the serious nature of COVID when discussing school closures and restrictions, even though the same misinformation undermines confidence in vaccines.

Curious, no? I thought all were pretty civil in the covid 19 anxiety syndrome thread. And then poof, gone.

I run a small business. If you allow posts that are anti-vax or sell product and state legit studies that show it can be helpful regarding Covid, Google will restrict/take away your ability to use their advertising. YouTube does same.
