Increasingly information is coming out that kids aren’t very much affected by COVID and [b]may in fact not be little vectors of COVID as well[/b].  Hopefully by late summer more will be known.

Can you provide some links to support your assertion? I've read that the latest studies support the opposite conclusion: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/05/health/coronavirus-children-transmission-school.html[/quote]
