No, they dont carry or spread the virusMaybe if Trump would just stop lying he wouldn’t have these problems
He didn't lie. He said children where "almost immune", meaning immune from the affects, not the disease itself. This is a widely known fact. Funny now no Democrats posts are banned. They never "lie", right? You can't be that naive...oh wait, you are going to vote for Biden.
We elected the worst possible person to lead us through this crisis
A man who prefers lies and misinformation to hard facts. From the beginning he has tried to downplay the threat.
Now, he is putting children at risk by telling parents not to worry because they are mostly immune.
Children are almost immune from getting sick from this virus. Of the 338k reported cases among children in the US, .3 percent have died. For the mathematically illiterate, that is 3 tenths of a percent. You can bet your bottom dollar that many, many more have had it and not even been tested, making the .3% significantly lower. According to some pediatricians, up to 80% of kids have had it but where asymptomatic and never tested. If that is the case, given there are at least 75 million kids under the age of 18 in the US, the death rate would be infinitesimal( 0.0013 one thousandth of 1 percent)
Pediatrician says 80% of kids likely have coronavirus, but they're so asymptomatic you'd never know
And those asymptomatic kids could each spread the virus to countless adults, and not even know it.
