Every time a study comes out people say “see kids can catch it” as if anyone doubted this. They are clearly less susceptible, the susceptibility goes up with age, and they are extremely unlikely—less than flu—to get any severe consequence compared to adults. That’s where we are.
Chris Price retweeted
I've seen suggestions that the idea younger children might be less susceptible to infection with #COVID19 is a "myth", based on children just not being tested enough
That is untrue!
Whilst it's true children are under tested, this is not where this idea came from!

Two great papers out today on how to improve compliance with restrictions and thus make real, lasting inroads against viral transmission, getting us out of the tunnel faster.
Turns out the answer is not blunt instruments, slogans, threats and fines (who knew?)

Today, hedge funds called in favors to have trading shut down for specific companies across several giant platforms so they could buy time to gather in private to decide what to do next. If that's not market manipulation, I don't know what is.

It seems like the fundamental fallacy underpinning misguided mitigation strategies is prioritizing the elimination of the highest-risk interactions ever experienced by the lowest-risk (most privileged) people.

Ontario launches #StayHomeON using a bunch of wealthy people imploring the working poor, essential workers, the houseless and everyone else who lives a less than wealthy life to "stay home"
Are these celebrities being paid for this initiative?

Nice article by @jacobgrier - there are times when we have to recognize why regulations are put in place and what for and understand when they are doing more harm in their current state than good.
The @US_FDA is regulating massive rapid testing all wrong. And it’s killing us.
I expect there's something for just about everyone to disagree with in my latest for @ArcDigi on how libertarian ideas can improve the pandemic response. arcdigital.media/libertarian…

Can we acknowledge yet that having young students on zoom from 9 to 3 is NOT developmentally appropriate?! My son cries most days & is now hating school more than he did before as a struggling learner 😪 Our bar for a pandemic should be laughing & social connection, not content.
Chris Price retweeted
Is this sustainable?
Parents, teachers & KIDS are all struggling.
We’re the only province doing this.

Random testing of teachers/students in school on the day. Oversampled from high risk areas and found no difference in positivity of teachers/students! Cases higher in 2are than 1are. No cases in 1ary schools in low risk areas.
Chris Price retweeted
No, officials have asserted the contrary based on contract tracing notes because kids don’t really go anywhere or do much during the pandemic whereas adults in high transmission areas head out to workplaces that are more conducive to spread and bring it home.

I know there's a lot going on right now, but we're starting to see the impacts this pandemic is having on kids. More children and teens are suffering from eating disorders than ever before. theglobeandmail.com/canada/a…

Family-run florists and shoe shops are superspreader venues, so they are closed. If you need flowers or shoes please queue at this giant Costco with hundreds of others instead.
It’s the first weekend of stay-at-home orders in Ontario and Costco is as busy as ever #Toronto #stayathomeorder #StayHome

I do not want the public to lose trust that PCR works as a diagnostic tool. BUT as a public health tool to find infectious people it is simply the wrong tool.
This is a good example. We have numerous similar examples.
On other hand, Rapid antigen tests are the correct tool.
