There's a paper and the press release / pop-sci coverage going around about infants with higher illness burdens from attending nursery.

Not going to link it because they don't deserve eyeballs. Here's proof:

We don't yet know whether COVID adds another virus to this mix.

a statement like this in 2026 when test positivity and wastewater are irrefutable proof of ongoing community spread?

Means either

  • the researchers didn't perform the briefest of research on their claims, or
  • the researchers have taken a position that is independent of data

either of which is a big ⚠️
