Eradication of Covid is a fantasy

[ll74]

No they did not. Mortality rates in Florida and California were almost identical. When you consider Florida has a high elderly population, the lockdowns didn't do much. There's no beating the virus or cheating it. You have to let it run its course.

Letting it run its course in vaccinated people is much better than doing so in unvaccinated people

"Eradicating" is setting the bar too high. Lockdown measures help. They save lives.

Lock downs DO NOT save lives, period. There is NO conclusive evidence that lock downs are particularly effective. The same goes for masks. As a matter of fact there is more than ample evidence that masks are a danger unto themselves, especially among young children. Another issue with the masks is that people wear the same mask over and over again, day in and day out. How do you plan on dealing with that? Mandate that everyone change their mask every time they venture out, or wash it between every public appearance? How are you going to enforce that?

Agreed. If an unvaccinated person wants to take that chance, that's on them. Your free to do as you want, but you live with the consequences of your actions. I was exposed to covid 6 times, and tested negative each time. I got the vaccine, so if I do get it, it won't be worse than a cold.

Masking children requires them to breathe in 20-30% more carbon dioxide than medically safe. Fauci knows too, but like Biden, doesn't give a shit. They aren't their kids.

How many kids ended up in the hospital due to CO2? How many children had adverse effects?

This is still the dumbest argument ever.

 

[ll74]

Probably based on this too

They don't get Covid, or spread Covid, so there is zero need for them to wear masks.

They do get Covid. They do spread Covid.

Still a stupid argument

How many children under ten have came down with Covid? I'll wait.

What? Lmao

Just shut up, you are clueless.

 

[ll74]

How many children under ten have came down with Covid? I'll wait.

According to the CDC, 1.2 million kids ages 5-11 have had covid

The Delta variant seems to infect children at a much higher rate than the original Covid virus.

That makes Governor Abbott and Governor DeathSentence's executive proclamiations prohibiting mask mandates in schools particularly odious.

From what I've seen, it's not really any higher camparitively, but it seems more because the higher age groups are vaxxed

But it certainly isn't "kids don't get Covid or spread Covid"

The evidence is so strong that the standard flu basically got zero kills this last season. Wearing the same mask means absolutely nothing though I am getting away from that as much as I can.

 

[BabyBoomer50s]

You said they "did COVID right". But you don't mention COVID, above. (Why not? We know why not.)

So, that's a non-answer = fail. Thanks for playing.

They did Covid right by not over-reacting with excessive lockdowns and mandates.

So, how many?

Show me the link.

Show me the link.

"Google it, it's all out there for you to see. I'm not doing your homework for you."

"Google it, it's all out there for you to see. I'm not doing your homework for you."

I do not see it at CDC. Where is the link?

Does it contain fact or only speculation?

Facts would include items like location, what kind of test, which flavor SARS-2.

All you have here is a bunch of noise about a suspect virus and vaccine attempt that was promising at first but evolved into a failed test.

 

[ll74]

Show me the link.

It's in my previous post, genius

The NUMBERS are miniscule:

CDC: Children 17 and Under Account for 0.057% of All COVID-Involved Deaths in U.S.
By Susan Jones | August 5, 2021 | 7:22am EDT

(CNSNews.com) - As of Wednesday, August 4, a total 349 children ages 0-17 have died of COVID since the pandemic began in January 2020, based on death certificates submitted so far to the CDC's National Center for Health Statistics.

In that same time period, CDC counts a total of 606,389 COVID-involved deaths in the United States. So children account for 0.057 percent of all COVID-involved deaths, or those coded to ICD–10 code U07.1.

CDC does not disclose what, if any, underlying conditions those 349 children may have had.

Since January 2020, the CDC has recorded 51,892 deaths from all causes in children 0-17, which means the 349 COVID-involved deaths equals 0.67 percent of the deaths in children from all causes.

The chart below shows the CDC's latest numbers. (CDC notes that death certificates are submitted on a lagging basis, so the numbers are sure to rise somewhat.)
