talked again to the guys who had 20 exposed - 10 asymptomatic - 1 moderate, their asymptomatic dudes recalled some mild fatigue/diarrhea/temporary loss of smell/taste so they were extremely milds who thought at the time it was stress/overwork/bad food or whatever. none of the mild cases ever developed anything worse, makes you wonder how many asymptomatics there are out there.

If you'd just stop and think about it for ONE loving SECOND you'd realize that not being able to smell or taste would be the ideal time to go to an Applebees.

possible good news!



On Saturday’s episode of This Week in Virology, the hosts argued for sending kids back to school and that recent evidence showed it is probably actually relatively safe. They pointed to studies in China and Finland where young kids were sent back to school and they found that young children *actually have low transmissibility of coronavirus* No explanation why transmission was lower with young children, just observing that it was what happened.

This is contingent on being able to test young kids once a week LOL

I can’t remember if it was Finland or Denmark or both but at least one of them kept kids 6 feet apart good luck with that in the US

Young kids, like elementary school age, not middle or high schoolers

It's not just contingent on testing kids regularly or spacing them out, it's contingent on the reproduction value among the adult population already being below 1. This really cannot be overemphasized.

If you have infections under control, if not that many adults are sick at any moment to begin with, and if sick adults are not passing it on to >1 other person and fueling a growing epidemic, then (and only then) yes--the risk of infected kids going to school, spreading it to eachother, then their parents, and then into the community is a containable risk. The additional transmissions caused by this are not likely to take a declining case count and throw it back out of control, the same way that e.g. opening bars or being a loving idiot will.

On the other hand, if your poo poo is already getting wrecked while kids are home, opening schools is going to take your R > 1 and turn it into R even more > 1.

This is a really simple point that somehow keeps getting missed. The practical difference between R = 1.0 and R = 1.05 and R = 1.10 is really significant. The difference between R = 0.75 and R = 0.80 much less so. If you already have a runaway fire, there is no "safe" amount of accelerant to throw on it, and you can't apply lessons from countries which already had infections under control to the unmitigated exponential poo poo show we've got going on here.

it’s just the flu tho. deaths are way down, so it isn’t that dangerous. we can’t let the cure be worse than the disease. we just have to learn to live with the virus

One thing that's really good is that no older people work at schools so if kids are fine then open er up, no problem, definitely cool.
