[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A weekly data update in the form of graphs based on linked raw data straight from a public health data agency is a reliable source.

you dont know what a valid source is[/quote]
A valid source for what? For an informed, intellectually honest discussion of public health threats on an anonymous forum? It sure is. It takes some serious disingenuousness to look at that consistency shared and posted information and shrug "dunno that guy - raw data too raw - whatever."

As far as the kids hospitalized in the "flat" part of that curve, (i.e. before that BMJ article calling the curve flat mid-June  before or as it shot up through the rest of June and all of July), 1 in 25 pediatric patients hospitalized between April 2020 and February 2021 developed neurological complications.

Those neurological complications were more prevalent in hospitalized kids than in adults hospitalized for covid.

[quote]Among the 1,334 children studied, researchers identified 52 cases of children who developed neurological complications, or 3.8 per cent of the study group. For adults who are hospitalized with COVID-19, current data puts the prevalence of neurological complications at only 0.9 per cent.[/quote]

Oh lord. Another journal article you didn't read. The study group is only hospitalized patients..

Have you thought about reading a single one of your sources thoroughly before citing?

Apparently not.[/quote]

Like, do you realize how tiny a population that is?[/quote]

the article wasn't even meant to be about the number of children who developed neurological complications, but about how to approach care.[/quote]
