    Just because you flip the game board over and storm off thinking you've won doesn't mean you actually have.

    These so called fact check sites are as much about facts as CNN is about news.

    Thats exactly what you did when you said you didn't have to (couldn't) think of a better word than "basically immune" to describe covids impact on children.

    "basically" was the word before immune. And the stats show that he's correct. Does that trigger you?

    Mmmm nah. And I don't need to come up with a better phrase, friend. Because aside from that not being my problem I nailed my post the first time and then spent the next two replies copy/pasting it to you again because it stayed relevant as you bounced from 'Ugandan death rates' to 'semantic arguing' heh. I see you're taking a beating in this thread so I'm gonna bow out now and let you focus on others. TTYL.

    What are the child COVID rates compared to 18+ individuals? Please cite your sources so we can verify your claims.

    "Basically" does not mean that you get supply whatever definition to his statement that you wish.

    So you attack Trump for "basically immune" but can't come up with any better phrase he should have usrd to describe covids effect on children.
    Nuff said

    So I'll ask you the same question the other guy couldn't answer. What term should Trump have used that would describe covids effect or should I say lack of effect on children that would be more acceptable to you than basically immune?

    An attempt to gin up hysteria. Hundreds of children died from swine flu but there was no school closures for that and no hysteria.

    In the same way that it is "basically correct" to say that the Sun revolves around the Earth.

    YAAAAWN


    Uganda, for instance, the per capita death rate is 0.01, one of the lowest in the world. The median age of Ugandans is 15.9.

    If you could discuss factual, documented matters and cite credible sources rather than parroting your Trump's contradictions of factual, documented matters, why don't you?

    Children are not remotely "immune" to Covid-19. They contract it, they suffer from it, and they die from it.

    Reality-tv performers and casino operators are not authorities on Covid-19. They spew falsehoods about it.

    Respect trained, experienced professionals who know what they're talking about, not frauds who pretend they do.

    Children are not "mostly immune" to Covid-19. Don't swallow such lies from chronic liars. There are respected public health experts providing the truth to anyone willing to accept it. (Don't drink disinfectants either!)

    Accept the word of those who know far better than you and reality-tv entertainers.

    Which fits right into a 0.01 per capita death rate or even lower for that age group in America.

    Basically immune and the swine flu killed hundreds of children in America without a whimper from the left but guess who was president then. LOL
