Ep. 106 - Are Children the Primary Spreaders of Covid?
from The Vaccine Conversation with Melissa and Dr. Bob · host Immunity Education Group
Many policymakers assume that Covid-19 is largely spread by children, leading to nationwide school closures and hesitation about re-opening amid unfounded fears of kids being asymptomatic carriers. Today we break down research articles and expert opinions that show the opposite is true: while the Flu is readily spread by children, Covid-19 is not. The available data shows that children contribute very little to the spread of the virus, and schools can re-open without a “new normal.” bit.ly/vaxconv
