[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]75 million people under age 18 in the US.  If they all get Covid, with even a 1% death rate, that's 750,000 people.

What you are really saying is you aren't worried because your family won't be one of the affected ones.  So you assume.[/quote] 
The death rate for people under the age of 20 is 0.003%. The only group with a death rate above 1% are people aged 70+.[/quote]

Is this why so many people are against opening schools?  Do people really think kids have anything close to a 1% chance of dying from COVID?[/quote]

Closing schools has nothing to do with protecting kids, it’s anxiety-paralyzed adults worrying about saving themselves. [/quote]

Everyone should be worried about saving themselves and other.[/quote]

Not pp but this seems a bit extreme wouldn’t that mean we all just stop driving because it is so risky to each other?  There has to be some cost benefit analysis.  I worry that large groups of kids are far more likely to be worse harmed by school closure than by covid.  It doesn’t seem to be a very rational decision right now.  [/quote]

Driving isn't comparable to COVID and if you were responsible about covid, like we are you'd be driving a lot less too.

Many people have gotten sick and died.  Many more will continue because of attitudes like yours.  One child dying is one to many.[/quote]
