Why distancing and hand-washing won’t stop the spread of Covid in schools | Coronavirus | The Guardian

 A nationally representative survey in Spain found only slightly lower prevalence of the virus that causes Covid-19 in children under 10 compared to older children and young adults.

And according to recent data from the ONS infection study, which randomly samples the population each week, infection rates in England were highest in older teens and young adults, while the rate of infection among younger children was no different to that of adults.

Although schools have already implemented some important precautions, other tools are still under-utilised. Measures such as better ventilation and universal masking are crucial. Opening windows even a few centimetres can increase the air exchange that dilutes virus-laden aerosols, while portable air cleaners with Hepa filters can capture airborne viral particles. And getting students outside as much as possible, including using tents or other structures, can also help mitigate indoor risks.

Avian Flu Diary: CDC: Late Sequelae of COVID-19 (Long COVID)

While the initial concerns with the COVID pandemic were handling acute illnesses and minimizing deaths, by early summer it had become apparent that some (perhaps many) COVID survivors were experiencing slow recoveries, and prolonged (and sometimes severe) sequelae.

Some `recovered’ patients have been left with lung, heart, or kidney damage while others have experienced lingering neurological manifestations ranging from relatively mild (headaches, dizziness, anosmia, mild confusion, etc.) to more profound (seizures, stupor, loss of consciousness, etc.) to potentially fatal (ischemic stroke, cerebral hemorrhage, muscle injury (rhabdomyolysis), etc.).

Some experts have suggested we may see huge increases in COVID-19 related heart failure and neurological diseases in the years ahead.
