[QUOTE="MWBATL, post: 717417, member: 944"] I personally agree. While covid is serious, and more serious than the flu, it is NOT more deadly to young people than the flu. Hence my confusion over why there is so much consternation on such topics. No one is suggesting that we should hold bridge tournaments at old age homes...that would be stupid given what we know. But we also seem to have many indications that this virus is very mild in your children (under age 16) and ramps up from there to become a big problem amongst very elderly folks. The risk would seem to be quite mild amongst college aged kids. As someone else has pointed out, the risk of catching an STD is much, MUCH higher than the risk of catching covid on a college campus. (There are about 2 million new cases every year of STD's in the 15-24 age group.) Perhaps I just don't understand. Or perhaps there are those who prefer for whatever reason to continue to portray this as more serious than it is. [/QUOTE]
