[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So remember the question isn’t do we close the schools? The question is do we close schools proactively and get the benefits or reactively and lose the benefits? Honestly though the time to close proactively has likely been lost. [b]We are already several weeks into this outbreak at least. We just don’t have the tests that prove it. [/b] So frustrated with our country.[/quote] And it's not so bad. So why would we close the schools again?[/quote] How do you know it's not so bad when almost no one is being tested? [/quote] Are hospitals being flooded with people with mysterious illnesses? If they're not sick enough to warrant medical attention, that sounds not so bad to me.[/quote] Since nobody testing even for the flu how can we be sure anything anymore. (CNN[b])So far this season,105 children have died from the flu,[/b] according to data released Friday by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This is the highest number of child flu deaths at this point in the season since the CDC started keeping records in 2004, except for the 2009 flu pandemic. This is the first time in 25 years where [influenza B] became so common so early. The 2019-2020 flu season, which began September 29, is projected to be one of the worst in a decade, according to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.[b] At least 250,000 people have been hospitalized with complications from the flu[/b], and that number is predicted to climb as flu activity swirls. The influenza virus has infected at least 26 million Americans across the country and killed at least 14,000 people this season alone. https://www.cnn.com/2020/01/30/healt...rnd/index.html [/quote]
