[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The year with the highest pediatric flu mortality in the US was 09-10 (H1N1) and there were still only 282 deaths. No idea where parents on here got the idea fact the flu kills “thousands of children every year”. It does not. Usually somewhere around 100, total. COVID has killed over 100,000 people with the strictest mitigation policies in place that we have seen in our lifetimes. You are very dense if you don’t see how the two are different. Closing schools is about preventing community spread, not about saving Sebastian and Avery. [/quote] NP. You are correct that the flu does not kill "thousands", but even the true numbers are still multiple times higher than Covid. And all the available evidence so far indicates that schools have a minimal impact on community spread, and so the benefits of opening schools will outweigh their enormous harms to children and working families.[/quote]
