Trying to keep straight the official information about children & COVID
1. Children don’t get or transmit COVID
2. If they get COVID, it’s just the sniffles
3. If it’s not the sniffles, it’s no big deal
4. If it’s a big deal, they had a pre-existing condition

4. If it’s a big deal, they had a pre-existing condition
5. If it’s a big deal & they did not have a pre-existing condition, you just didn’t know about the pre-existing condition (as per 2-4)
6. Maybe kids can transmit COVID, but not in schools
7. If it seems otherwise, it’s because schools reflect community transmission

8. It’s a coincidence if cases are higher when schools are open & lower when they’re closed
9. The fact that more kids than adults have been infected is due to transmission outside schools
10. Anyway, it’s good for our "immunity wall" that so many kids had this mild thing

11. What really harms children is being out of school. There’s absolutely nothing worse than that
12. Also, masks affect children’s development. All the non-existing evidence says so. Besides, who needs evidence when repeating something enough times is more effective?

13. Nothing is more important than seeing children’s smiles
14. During the (now over) pandemic, masks & lockdown kept other infections away
15. As a result, kids lost their immunity to them (or never had it) & many are now very sick

16. Immune dysregulation from COVID doesn’t explain that, as it violates axioms 2-3
17. Immunity debt does, especially if we ignore that, so far, there’s less RSV than last year
18. Immunity debt is well-established, way back from 2021. Next year, we may have immunity inflation
