I'm not ignoring reality. I'm dealing with the situation as it exists. If kids were becoming sick or spreading the disease at a high rate, that would be one thing. But the spread among young children is very low. That's been the single lucky break we've gotten from this disease. |
Kids from age 1-9 dont spread as much as adults (a tiny bit less, but they still spread it as well).
Older kids do, ones ages 10 and up. They spread the virus as much as adult do.
Schools are gonna be a mass spread risk, worse than bars & resturants.
Your kids will come back and pass the virus onto their parents.
Its not "very low", ages 10 and up its same as a adult.
Also if you asked military, to gather for 8hours to discuss something in a small building room, where they needed to be 30-40 people, and had no ventilation. They would tell you, its unsafe, and instead do the meeting via PC's and online (to avoid getting everyone infected).
Soldiers wouldnt do what your asking kids to, because its "unsafe" and not nessary.

They did a study on it.
Its basically not true that kids dont spread it as much as adults do.
