      If Seattle leaders are recommending events with more than 10 people be canceled, and that workers telecommute, why is it that schools are still open? Makes no sense. Any idea, @ByMikeBaker @KYWeise?https://twitter.com/ByMikeBaker/status/1235330485041192966 …

      At the press conf today, health officials said that covid-19 has not shown to be a serious disease for children, and while their role as transmitters is unknown, officials are weighing that with the "very significant downsides of closures," which they said included...

      They also said that they "can't close schools forever" so seemed to be cautious about doing so too early. This was all via King County public health at the presser today.

      Thanks for the info. Straw man alert: no one is asking schools to "close forever." Japan's primary schools are closed for a month, not "forever." They act as if teenagers won't do what's good for society if asked to. I mean, I normally go to work, but now will be telecommuting.

      Re health care workers being at home and older people watching children, the studies I've read show that closing schools still *saves* lives.

      “Study reveals sharp increase in #COVID19 in kids in Shenzhen” Children *may* be a group under diagnosed due to testing bias. This is developing and not enough info yet to know for sure.
