[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here you go, writeup from Sloan Kettering on long term immunity problems after covid infection --

https://libguides.mskcc.org/CovidImpacts/Immune

but deniers gonna deny[/quote]

And this impacted low income students more? Do we have (I'm gonna guess the answer is no) correlation data of students who had COVID and are now chronically absent due to illnesses?  Do the COVID rates in individual schools correspond to each school's absenteeism rate?

I don't deny long-term impacts of COVID. Just wondering whether this is really the cause of the absenteeism, or what percentage of the absenteeism it actually accounts for. "Immunity problems." Does that mean they're getting more sick (where parents actually keep them home, not just some sniffles)? Or are parents keeping them home more to "protect" them?

I'm assuming the elementary and at least most of the middle schoolers' absences are known by the parents. But how much middle school and high school is students just skipping or without the parents' pre-knowledge?  Those are two very different situations with different causes for the absenteeism.[/quote]
