We're in the Era of Stupid.
I've never said children aren't in danger from contracting Delta and don't relish the though of a child suffering from any ailment. But they obviously have the numbers, so how many children have died from Covid since school has started? How many were placed on ventilators the week referenced?Child Covid-19 hospitalizations reach a new high. That's not the only reason kids need to be protected from Delta, doctors say
(CNN)More kids were hospitalized with Covid-19 this month than any other time this past year -- proving how seriously the Delta variant can hit any age group.
Between August 20 and 26, an average of 330 children were admitted to hospitals every day with Covid-19, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
'This is not an adult disease anymore': Hospitals report children in ICUs or on ventilators
That's the highest rate of new Covid-19 hospitalizations among children in more than a year -- a record that was broken several times in August, according to CDC data.
"This virus that we're dealing with now is a game changer," said Dr. Mark Kline, physician-in-chief of Children's Hospital New Orleans.
"It's just so easily transmitted from person-to-person." As of August 9, he said, "half of the children that we've admitted have been under the age of 2."

Do you still think children are not in danger from contracting Delta? How many children on ventilators are acceptable to you? We also have no idea what the long term effects are on our next generation. This minimization of a deadly virus has got to stop and it should start with you.
Not hand waving. Just don't think it's much to ask to complete the story.Just hand wave the 500k that tested positive because you don't know how many died. Yeah...run with that.
I guess you can ask anything you'd like.Not hand waving. Just don't think it's much to ask to complete the story.
630,000 Americans have died from covid 19. I'd say the risks from Covid are far more pressing especially for school age children who come home and spread covid to their families. But your whataboutism is noted. Masking in schools is a better alternative than remote learning would you agree?I've never said children aren't in danger from contracting Delta and don't relish the though of a child suffering from any ailment.

Upwards of 120,000 kids under 2 are hospitalized each year for RSV. Same transmission pattern which can be transmitted to adults (14,000 adults per year die from it).
I'm not against masks in schools. If a district is representing their populace and they want it, then go for it. My whole foray into this thread was do we know anything about the kids' health, many deaths, any teacher increase in Covid? death? You'd think I asked someone to split the atom. As someone mentioned, we live in the era of fear porn. If they didn't mention any of these things then there is a reason.630,000 Americans have died from covid 19.

And needless deaths of dumbasses.And fear porn.

But I'm sure their wives, as they look for their next husbands, won't think that.
Show me the numbers of vaccinated vs unvaccinated (deaths).A lot of dead vaccinated people lately.
What say you?
Show me the numbers of vaccinated vs unvaccinated (deaths).
Show me the number of deaths of vaccinated versus unvaccinated.You're the freaking expert lately?
Here's a clue.................... You are not vaccinated.
The current shots are more of a therapeutic in case you missed the science.
Meanwhile texas healthcare workers get harassed…US states that had some of the worst Covid-19 case rates in past week also reported the highest rates of new vaccinations

You can probably find parents fighting or screaming at or punching other parents/administrators/teachers for trying to keep their kids safe with masks, etc.

"More than 500,000 children tested positive for Covid-19 in the US from August 5 to August 26, according to state data collected by the American Academy of Pediatrics. At least 203,962 of those cases were reported in the week of August 19 to August 26; In late June, one weekly reported number was just shy of 8,500."
Now that i think about it, what became Trumpers were already trying to undermine our elections 8 years before Trump. Birtherism.It's called Trumpism. It has a name, a face and a color.
FWIW, My grandchildren, girl, 13 and boy,10, both got COVID the last week In July. The girl had one vaccine shot. She got it from younger children that she was babysitting. All parents were vaccinated. Both grandchildren has mild symptoms for 24 hours and were done with their quarantine before school started. I'm actually glad that the boy got COVID before going back to school, since our pro-COVID governor has issued a no mask mandate mandate. This was the only way for a 10 year old to be protected.how the hell would we know? do you have a system that tracks who each person infects, and who they infect, and who they infect and then who all dies along the way?
You know all the folks that used Christianity to promote their beliefs/political beliefs?Meanwhile texas healthcare workers get harassed…

Of course the other way would be for the FDA to release its stranglehold on the vaccine for kids who happen not to have reached their twelfth birthday and let parents and doctors decide case-by-case.FWIW, My grandchildren, girl, 13 and boy,10, both got COVID the last week In July.

Fox their propaganda outlet.Rush and Gingrich are the fathers of the deplorable movement.
I agree that the FDA needs to approve the vaccine for children under 12, ASAP. I also think it should be distributed at pharmacies, just like the adult doses. Not all kids have insurance or doctors.Of course the other way would be for the FDA to release its stranglehold on the vaccine for kids who happen not to have reached their twelfth birthday and let parents and doctors decide case-by-case.
they certainly grew it.Rush and Gingrich are the fathers of the deplorable movement.
The death rate for children under 12 is something like 1 in 200,000 so it is conceivable that none have died, if they received excellent treatment. If we are strict by these rates, we would expect 2 deaths given this number of cases.so, you're thinking a half a million infected kids could potentially lead to no deaths and them not infecting other people and that could lead to no deaths?
so, just using your head on other viruses, how many kids bring that stuff home from school and infect their parents who then infect other people?
they certainly grew it.
i would argue that the Confederate moms and dads started it though.

EDIT: I think this is wrong... please disregard. I believe Delta has changed this. I will recalculate.
EDIT UPDATE: Okay, it could be as high as 1 in 10,000 worst case. I would be surprised if it was actually this high, but that would translate to possible 50 deaths.

No, people were wondering about the numbers so I answered with the best estimate. I don't have any particular agenda to highlight. Just thought I'd answer. Thanks for the insertion on ill motive on my behalf, I appreciate it. Have a good one!Do you have a point? Are you suggesting that because teh numbers, so far, have been low that we should ignore it? Ignore all the suffering, medical resources used, infections that they spread, their teacher who die? Their grandparents who die? There parents who die? Just what is your point. I want to know.
I find posts like your absoloutly fascinating.
