[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Daycare never closed. Isn’t that kinda the same thing as college? [/quote]

No. Daycare students are supervised all of the time. They also don't sleep there. Do I need to go on?[/quote]

Is covid more contagious during sleep? [/quote]

No, but time spent exposed to contagions is associated with increased risks, so being somewhere 24-7 creates issues that being somewhere 9-5 doesn't.[/quote]

I would think that the fact that toddlers can’t wear masks, can’t stay even inches apart, and can’t keep their bodily fluids to themselves would sort of even out the difference.[/quote]

It's another example of how they're different, and that you can't draw conclusions from one, and apply them to others.

Also, it seems that there are differences between the way that the virus is spread by adults vs. young children.

If you want examples of how adults have fared in congregate care situations, you need to look at residential schools for teenagers with disabilities, half way houses, prisons, workers dormitories, and nursing homes.  All of them have had very high rates of spread.  And while many of those cases are asymptomatic, in a college setting, all those people would then take the germs home over breaks, and infect their home communities.  [/quote]
