[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you're ridiculous to interpret this as supporting that kids aren't spreaders.
Kids aren't around a lot of people these days. 
This demonstrates that kids can infect people that they are in close continuous contact with, like grand-parents.
School is 12-20 kids and 1-3 adults in an enclosed room for over 4 hours a day. That's a lot of people, regardless of the face covering, shields, open windows and hand sanitizer.  [/quote]

I think it supports BOTH concepts -- that kids don't spread as much as adults do (there have been a lot of epidemiological studies or at least papers about this -- it is pretty hotly debated but over and over again, it seems that it is older kids, young adults and adults who do the most spreading)   and YET that they CAN AND DO SPREAD it.  Maybe not as much as adults, but they can spread it.

"Kids aren't around a lot of people these days" -- not here in the DC area maybe but it seems the people in this community were not wearing masks, mostly out and about the community, at parties with kids, going to work and likely sending kids to camps.[/quote]
