Because

Because it doesn’t ever matter how many people respond with a logical answer to your outlandish questions, you’ll ignore every single one and start formulating your next even less thought out hypothesis to post midafternoon.

Been thinking if schools were kept open and we didn't know about Covid-19

Instead of voting down, how about providing an answer to the question?

Busiturtle

The kids would have spread to the adults in the school at higher rates

What impact on R0 is social distancing having?

There are none so blind as those who will not see.

Have you heard the study that recommended keeping kids IN school?

No, I havent seen a study saying kids dont get the virus.

Charles Darwin

Experts are rethinking this, actually.

Please link any proof that experts are rethinking that school closures hasn’t

CDC report states that school closures do not impact spread of virus

Rooney

It specifically mentions it makes a difference once you have community spread

Charles Darwin

3/29/20 9:22pm

Still don’t see any reports of states regretting their decision to close

CodeBlueCoug

3/29/20 10:40pm

What states are rethinking this? And why don’t they just open schools back up

CodeBlueCoug

The question itself makes zero sense.

Many think that is exactly what happened because their cousin was sick in Jan.

Charles Darwin

3/29/20 8:53am

Because nobody ever gets the flu or a bad cold in January.

I'm convinced there are some people who will not take this seriously

Your numbers are off

Busiturtle

No, those numbers don’t fit your beliefs. The power of And vs Or is important

This doesn't change the fact that those with severe symptoms are many.

You're optimistic. I expect another one well before afternoon.

ReyOso

Closing schools was one of the most common sense measures to slow the spread. They’re a hotbed for passing

Exactly, this is how the flu season doesn’t extend or get worse. Fauci or that

Yet my district shouted til the end, "There is no evidence that closing

Anecdotally, but the point remains.

See any footage in the Italian hospitals? New York? We would have noticed.

dave

3/29/20 8:58am

NYC is proof enough that this is a ridiculous idea.

3/29/20 9:00am

Not if the outbreak is from the self quarantine.

coug almighty

3/29/20 9:16am

What does this even mean? The quarantined are spreading this somehow?

dave

3/29/20 9:24am

What if the virus is spread by not coming into contact with other people,

ReyOso

Are you one of those guys convinced you had Covid19 last November?

dave

But I did. I had a really bad cough and fever. I know it was COVID19. 😂😂😂

Sweden is the best case study so far. Time will surely tell

GeraldGarner

We don't need that much time to tell the significance of social distancing
