There are some children that have died under 10 years old. I've resd a few articles, where the child died

^Yes I'm aware & I know that a child who succumbs to this virus is profoundly tragic & there have been a few. I don't mean to minimise those deaths at all.

In statistical analysis there will be groups who will buck the trend. But they are not statistically relevant in terms of the rest of the trends & groups.
 
If you look at 15.18 a Chinese whistle blower is saying that Covid19 killed whole families in China and has not stopped. She says the Chinese Communist Party is still lying.

17:38 People recovering but get sick again.

 
WHO and schools

@ms spock - This is a comprehensive directive & recommendation by WHO dated 20 March 2020. It details how to maintain schools in a Covid19 environment.

Not closure.

Do you have another directive or recommendation that contradicts this one?

And please also remember, in Australia we are indeed wealthy & our population is healthy - compared to many other countries.

We can socially distance, we can get soap, food etc & keep our most vulnerable students and teachers away from the larger group of children.

So when the WHO or anyone else outside of Australia recommends that something happen consider the audience it is targeted at and whether or not it relevant to us here in Australia. Sometimes it is & sometimes it's targeted at nations who have virtually no capacity to cope with an outbreak of any sort. Eg African continent.
 
Wow. Just heard that 12 nurses walked off the job at a big hospital I'm Portland because of no PPE and if you Google "nurses walk off job" there are dozens of them across the us.

Can't say I blame them.

to bad we didn't have someone thinking ahead for what to do in a pandemic.

oh ya. We did. They were considered unnecessary and closed down by the President.

Funny how that happens huh?
 
WHO Stats

If you scroll down a couple of pages to the table, you have a country by country breakdown of confirmed cases, as well as deaths. Some were surprisingly high, like Belgium. And it looks like Russia has decided to be more honest about its situation.

Then you scroll down and hit the US stats, and it's a bit like someone accidentally hit the zero key too many times or something - cases utterly eclipsing anywhere else in the world.

I didn't break down the relative mortality rates, but I hope the US medical system holds for you guys. Tough days ahead:(
