2) Here is a longer thread about the detailed Science article on the G4 influenza virus.
3) Here is the quote by WHO at its press conference: uk.reuters.com/article/us-hea…

New study of COVID in children finds children can spread virus as easily as adults. Therefore, kids are equal vectors for transmission.

2) COVID-19 spreads easily and is deadly — as of Tuesday afternoon on June 30th, there have been over 2.6 million confirmed infections and, tragically, more than 126,000 deaths in the US alone. The coronavirus — SARS-CoV-2 — is primarily spread “through respiratory droplets
3) produced when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks,” and some of those droplets are aerosolized. Moreover, COVID-19 can be transmitted efficiently “by people who are not showing symptoms.” These factors make it all the more critical to follow public health guidance.
