[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just really want to understand the risk of Long Covid to a kid who gets regular, mild Covid. My (limited) research has not found me answers.[/quote] there is research, and it finds that “long covid” isn’t really a concern for kids. [/quote] Please share this research.[/quote] “ This study found a low prevalence of symptoms compatible with long COVID in a randomly selected cohort of children assessed 6 months after serologic testing” https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2782164[/quote] This study is interesting, but, it is small (just 100 positives in the group); it does not add much to the limited research. The authors note, “Although long COVID exists in children, [b]estimates of the prevalence of persisting symptoms based on scarce literature range from 0% to 27%.[/b]” The picture is still inconclusive. Maybe it’s tiny; maybe it’s not. [b]And what is a “small” number if virtually all unvaccinated kids get Covid?[/b][/quote] +1 to each of your 4 points, and emphasis on the bolded. [/quote] Same old goal-post moving and fear mongering. You ask for research- I give you research You say research proves nothing; therefore we can’t be sure of anything and must keep schools closed. [/quote] LOL. You didn’t learn critical analysis in school, did you? Believe me, I want my kids back in school, in-person, full-time. And I don’t want them to suffer for the rest if their lives from getting a stupid, avoidable virus. That’s unlikely, but possible. The current likelihood is smallish but unknown. I’m not going to to hide in the basement, but we shouldn’t be reckless just because we are all fed up. I mean, I make my kids wear seat belts and bike helmets; don’t you?[/quote]
