Time to Play

Your challenge was "Are you denying the flu kills children under 17 (Even though we have a flu vaccine) while there are 0 COVID deaths for kids under 17 in California?"

Your quoted source says nothing of the "California" part.

Data is this. Many kids are not doing much except: _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________I see kids playing at the beach and all over the place. I see protesters who look like kids, who spend hours upon hours protesting for what they believe in and I support that btw, as long as it's peaceful. I see other young adults not in school and their fighting for their cause. My kid would like to get some exercise at soccer camp for the next month or so. What is so wrong with that? We haven't started playing a game yet either. Buzz off for goodness snakes and find something else to do. Maybe change the thread to "Time To Camp." Let's all come back August 1st and talk Corona with a lime and a grain of salt. We can have espy and dad of 4, plus Copa go over the facts for July's data numbers. One thing I love about math, numbers never lie. They can't because numbers speak the truth, unless the numbers have been played with as some like to play number games. Scare tactics is causing much confusion and sadness to our youth. Sports for youth need to be allowed, like now dad of 4. Dang bro, I give you credited for dealing with 4 kids, all under 10 and have all the time you give us on the forum. Thank for sharing your opinion btw. Dad drops off kiddo and takes a one hour walk so he stops getting fat. Or, you can go meditate on something freaking positive and stay away from news channel. Time to camp, campers!!!

Social Isolation had nothing to do with it. Lets not pretend kids arent out playing with friends, soccer, or even protesting without a mask.

Well at least you now know COVID is safer for children 17 and under compared to the flu (With a vaccine). Time to open up schools and sports.

A lot of diseases are less severe in prepubescent childhood, like chicken pox, mumps, some types of measles. Some diseases are not less severe. Since this is, by definition, the first year of research and health statistics for Covid-19, no one knows which group it is in.

You can do whatever you want with yourself and your kids.

If you think you are making an informed decision when no one knows yet what the facts are, you're not. You're making a bet.

When it comes to children, stats say my child is more likely to die from flu. do you disagree? I guess we should have had kids wearing masks every flu season. lol I guess we've all been gambling with our kids lives during state cup. :rolleyes:

Did you have your kids play soccer during flu season? I know that was like 40 years ago, if you did, why did you risk their lives to dying from the flu? We both know that the flu kills more children under 17 than COVID now.

We all take risks. I'm sure you're comfortable with the ones you are taking.

To be honest I didn't really pay attention during the parents meeting, but I did catch that the girls can't do their normal team cheers before games in the batters circle because of the proximity to each other. The girls don't have to wear masks in the dug out by they have to be spread apart as much as possible. I know a lot of the parents like to sit in the outfield anyway so they can sneak some adult beverages.
 
I just got back from our daughter's 1st soccer practice in a field. All the parents dropped of the girls, they had to take the temperature, they were wearing mask, each one had a square and they couldnt leave the square. They were sprinting with a good 10 feet distance from each other. The Coach had a mask and maintained distance.

So, I started walking to the other side of the park, and I find baseball players with no social distancing, softball players huddled up, and 5v5 basketball game for some 30+ old men.

I just shook my head thinking, only the young soccer players are stuck following the rules. LOL
