It shouldn't take much of a reason to want to shout down Dr. Oz, but I think this is the article he was referencing. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanchi/article/PIIS2352-4642(20)30105-X/fulltext This is a more nuanced issue than he could present, or than i think we're giving credit for, because while 2-4% less deaths not compared to any sort of cost sounds worth it, those less deaths do have a cost. In lives also. That cost includes access to social assistance provided through schools such as food and healthcare to include immunizations and mental healthcare. Theres a concern for access specialized training for certain students. Physical is expected to drop, and the cost of that is something we can model--whats the cost of that over 10, 20, 40 years? quote:Following school closures amidst the west African Ebola epidemic, rates of child labour, neglect, sexual abuse, and adolescent pregnancies spiked, and many children never returned to school. quote:Children confined at home will struggle to achieve the WHO 24 h movement behaviour guidelines which recommend 60 minutes a day of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity for 5–17 year olds. This jeopardises not only young people's mental wellbeing and healthy weight status, but also increases the risk of establishing dangerous habits, such as increased screen time and snacking that can damage future cardiovascular and musculoskeletal health. None of this talks about the economic gap. Think real hard about what groups are going to be able to continue learning effectively in a remote environment with the least interruption. If you live in one of the methriddled corners of America and make less than a certain amount, the hope of escape for your children might be changing from 'engineering degree' to enlistling. If this takes a year and you turn 18 during this and your mom runs out of rent money and moves into a shelter, do you finish your degree when this is done, or take on more hours at the grocery store? What percent do all of these add up to? How many sexual assaults of children is equal to an outbreak of rubella? What's the exchange rate on lost futures? So yeah, gently caress Dr. Oz, but there are real costs to be weighed here.

My frustration is really that I just read a page of goons split on whether he meant killing 2% of all kids or 2% of all Americans, because people didn't want to look up the publicly available article.

I'm just glad that when we had a work all hands meeting yesterday, someone asked if we would reopen when Trump says to reopen or go buy local/state guidelines. It was an immediate "We will follow State and local guidelines only".
