[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have really tried to listen and understand both sides. I think the place I get hung up is with the multi-generational households. We know that the majority of deaths are occurring in the elderly populations. So what do we do for families who live with elderly people and have young children in the home? It's just not as simple as saying that at-risk people should isolate.[/quote] What's crazy is that some people argue that since nursing homes are such high-risk environments, a consequence of this crisis might be that people choose to care for their elderly relatives at home. But multigenerational households were exactly why the virus killed so many people in Italy, and if multigenerational households also mean that schools can't open because that would put the elderly at risk, then what? That doesn't seem like a solution that's fair to kids.[/quote]
