Children in day-care programs present virtually no risk of transmitting Covid-19 to adults, according to a new Yale University study of more than 57,000 U.S. child-care providers

Children in daycare programs present virtually no risk of transmitting Covid-19 to adults, according to aThe study, believed to be the largest of its kind, indicated that

doesn’t contribute to transmission of the disease caused by the new coronavirus, as long as they hew to sanitary guidelines like hand washing, small group sizes and staff wearing face coverings.and child-care workers. More than a third of child-care centers in the country closed between March and July, according to Child Care Aware, an advocacy group.

A June survey by the National Association for the Education of Young Children found that child-care center enrollment fell by 33% nationwide and that 70% of providers reported that parents told them they weren’t comfortable sending kids back to daycare. “For parents, it might be a little bit of cold comfort, because they’re worried about their particular child,” said Dr. Walter Gilliam, a child psychologist at Yale and lead author of the study, published Wednesday in the journal Pediatrics. “But it’s clear that child care doesn’t pose a threat to communities.”

Day cares don't spread disease. The filthy children do it.

Misleading headline. Childcare centers are one of the most COVID regulated areas of society. A more appropriate headline would be, “Health & Safety Regulations Work in Helping to Stop the Spread of COVID”

looks like those mothers are eating their way through covid 19..holy shit they are fat, imagine the size of them in 10 years time

Well a baby under 12 months and a teacher in my grandson's day care tested positive....

Thank you my toddler childhood been in child care services since May & there was only 1 case that was contracted from outside the whole time till October. Our child care center went “above & beyond” when they received their state recertification.

Daycare centers are safe places.

Not a lot of social distancing. Could be a superspreader. Thousands are now marching in DC for the WomensMarch

The only people who need to take Covid seriously are Boomers. But Boomers have never taken responsibility for themselves, so why would they volunteer to stay inside? No, EVERYONE has to. Just like everyone has to live w massive mkt distortions, so Boomers' pensions never implode.

Adults working in childcare facilities bring in COVID; children take it home.

That is pure bull. There have been numerous cases of children transmitting the virus in Europe.

Ok, but my brother got it from his daughter’s daycare *provider*, so...

Sweden never closed its schools and was fine . Europe opened up last spring and no problems.But the media here has scared people

APLMom 'In an online report, the CDC estimated there have been 16 million cases of H1N1 in children up through age 17, leading to 71,000 hospitalizations and 1,090 deaths.' Funny how no one gives a sit about children dying when it is under a Democrat Presidency...

Twitter jack won’t let me read this article!

“Sharing a household with children and risk of COVID-19: a study of over 300,000 adults living in healthcare worker households in Scotland “ →CROSS IMMUNITY!

This report directly contradicts what ‘some random guy/gal from my past’ said about Covid in a Facebook post with many spelling errors. Hard to know who to trust.

sweden said the same thing from the beginning and was attacked by all.

We need to follow the science and quit all of the online learning

All the critics, whose against science now? Lololol

anjeleena_lee Trump was right !!!

kerpen Curves.

jaimes1205 Waiting for Big Brother’s censorship in 3,2,1...

kerpen No shit

The truth will set you free!

MarkChangizi Even if they do, since the curve was flattened there is no problem

Yup. We need to double down on care for seniors and open the rest of us up to live our lives. And we need to better understand why Blacks are afflicted far more than other races.

Yeah but once they get to Kindergarten, it’s like sending teachers to certain death.

MarkChangizi Of course. Probably because there’s no Day Care Union.

Of course not. Child and asymptomatic spread are both very rare.

Open schools! Stop punishing children, the data on young people is clear. What happened to land of the free and home of the brave?

NYGovCuomo time to open up the schools without your ridiculous guidelines!!

Data from all over the world has been saying this for months. Too bad our media has completely abandoned us, too afraid to push back against COVID hysteria. Hey does this mean you'll stop debasing yourselves and actually practice journalism again? Hope so.

BS. My great nephew is one and he passed it to his dad and my great nephew got it at daycare

So far so good hope it would be lasting til end.

Yep! There have been numerous studies on this. Great to have one from Yale now as well.

Lock downs are political. The goal of lock downs is to make US citizens suffer in hopes they blame Trump.

Amen!

How is this possible or different from schools? Where are all those 'science' assholes now?

Maybe the reason is because they wear masks, Check temperature, wash hands and don’t allow non workers into the facilities.

A 25-year-old man becomes first in the U.S. to contract coronavirus twice, with second infection 'more severe'

Republican's in Congress (day-care programs) present virtually no risk of transmitting Covid-19 to the real adults in the room, according to a new Yale University study of more than 57,000 U.S. Congress's adult daycare providers

Imagine dumping your kids off everyday to be raised by strangers.

stop eating all the donuts?
