Each of my kids, one in middle school and one in high school, have friends currently on antibiotics for walking pneumonia so I'd argue it's not just central Indiana that's full of kids with potentially fatal respiratory diseases walking around everywhere

You see, it is not the children who are struggling to learn here in this situation
I only go out when I have to. Long-haul Covid has been a difficult thing to deal with, and I’m sure this is why.
I’m just grateful I can still workout when I can and keep active to do my best.
I wish you well!
If people continue to allow themselves to be reinfected, chances are they will end up with LC. From what I’ve read, things will start to fall apart & eventually society will collapse.
I hope you fully heal!
I felt like there was a lot of maga people dying from pneumonia after COVID because they didn't want to say it was that, so I always feel like when they say pneumonia now they mean COVID.
I'm pretty sure the test is symptoms + a chest X-ray and exclusion of the other potentially fatal respiratory illnesses
Kids mask @ school but eldest still got it 🤷🏻♀️

Two Urgent Care visits.
One ER visit.

Hope you get better!
The first three periods combined aren’t even a quarter of the chart. 😕
It is when I fell in love with Harvest Moon actually lol
Pneumonia
Covid
Strep Throat
(Our elderly neighbor was sick with all 3 at once 2 wks ago)
ER and urgent cares are packed around here.
I have had my pneumonia vaccination. Please, encourage others to do likewise.
They’re going to say it’s only for old people but kids could easily give it to adults.
Spread by coughing and sneezing, so mask up around the young and the elderly to help protect them.
It doesn't survive normal hand washing and cleaning - it's a fragile bacteria, so wash hand.
You know what we should do? Put TV doctors and quacks in charge of our healthcare system... that'll fix it...
You know what works? Consistent respirator mask wearing. I’m the only one of my peers never infected with C+ despite constant coughing in my face.
CDC: The increase is highest among kids, going from 1.0% to 7.2% among those 2–4 years & from 3.6% to 7.4% among kids 5–17 years.
these numbers likely under-reported (the urgent care clinic i finally went to never even got me proper test results though their remote radiologist d/x pneumonia)
they really don’t give af
Walking myself into an early grave with pneumonia!

Apologies for shouting, but I live in Hamilton County and this is an absolute time-bomb.

My younger child had it two weeks ago.
My oldest child four weeks ago.
I've been wearing a mask in the house.
[All my kids already mask at school]
And when my 5yo is the only kid in their grade masking and other kids are licking the floor, that's not going to be a good case study.
Remember, a man is to stop YOU from spewing contaminated DROPLETS from your filthy mouth, thereby reducing chances someone is is infected.
If you think a cloth mask STOPS you from getting infected, you're just kind of dumb.
