They'll kidnap the sick children, force them into warehouses & schools to get sicker, and jail the parents. Seems like cleaning the air & masking would be ... not insane and evil? Or at the least cheaper, if you don't care about being evil?

Omg. These articles make me feel like we're already all zombies and not really alive

Someone (I think @dfisman.bsky.social ) said “I’m not saying COVID is a virus that affects the behaviour of its host…but if it was it would look a lot like this.”

California tried the truancy thing, and kids like my youngest who is autistic, were out a lot and got caught up in the mix.

It's a bad idea. Make sure kids have the tools to do their work at home or at school. Both my folks were teachers, it can be done.

Like many studies on Covid, I wish this one had gotten more attention this past week. It looks very much like Covid is, indirectly, driving part of the burden of other infectious illnesses.

Bet if they cleaned the air, everyone would be healthier. Staff and students.

What they expect - a vascular and immune deregulatory virus is making rounds with immune evasive variants - and making it easier for other infectious agents to cause host to sicker - means kids with fever and illness can come to class - has not worked and children are too sick to be at school!

And we have not told the population that this virus - host cannot induce long lasting plasma cells - and immunity either from
Vaccines and/or infection lasts for 4 months at the most
And no effort to start adapting to a virus which will disable working age and young and decrease life spans
