[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Children are the best transmitters for these viruses. If you want to predict what the death rate will be for a flu season, check the rates of flu cases of 4 year olds in early fall. That number helps epidemiologists project how many will die by springtime when the flu dies down. Of course, it’s the elderly and immune compromised that have the dire consequences. That’s why flu vaccines for children can have the greatest impact. The more they are protected from getting it, the fewer deaths for others. This is why closing schools is a really good idea. It’s not because kids are dying from the virus, but because they more easily transmit it than others. [/quote] COVID-19 is not the flu. [/quote]
