I agree children should not be dying. Looks like another screw up of the CDC to me... “Children being protected and not needing anything” as they claimed earlier, not at risk etc., and still not able to get the “v*****es yet”.. Right along with not enforcing any of the mandates we all lived with last year... No required masks, distancing in schools, testing, Quarantining, etc why not perm?? Whats different this time around if we’re to believe all the spikes, delta and new variants coming out????

My posts were relative to you shutting down deaths of children by c***d to guns.
In Chi-Town... That was the issue at that moment..

And if you look at crime rates itself we have more disclosure... DC having the highest in the Nation with Chicago, Ill ranking 9th..This is 2021 stats...

The District of Columbia has the highest crime rate in the United States of 5,416.09 incidents per 100,000 people. Violent crime in D.C. averages more than twice the average rate. In 2018, the violent crime rate was 995.9 per 100,000, while the national average was 368.9 per 100,000. While overall crime is decreasing in D.C., the murder rate is going up. From 2019 to 2020, homicides increased by 18%, while overall crime decreased by 19%.

New Mexico has the second-highest crime rate of 3,944.96 incidents per 100,000 residents, more than twice the national average. New Mexico also had one of the highest property crime rates in 2018 of 3,420 incidents per 100,000 people. Albuquerque, which is home to more than a quarter of the state's population, reported slight decreases in both violent and property crime.

True linda, I was not able to find any article which compared kids dead from c***d to gun deaths in Chicago. nor did any express the age group they considered "kids"..

I posted the article because of the differing number set of c***d deaths, but that number was also expressed only as an estimate..

So, all in all , I did not like the article. Did not feel it fully addressed the issue at hand..

lindajoy Loc: right here with you....

Candidly I don’t like any of them because none of the numbers are correct they haven’t been from the onset of the p******c because no one was consistent in how they did their testing’s meaning positive versus negative positives and positive negatives and how often the person got the v***s test etc. There was no consistency from one state to the other one or how they even reported any of this either...

On that subject, I was dismayed this morning by the news.. as far as the strain of c***d is concerned.. when a person takes the usual c***d test, it will only show a yes or no. for the detection of the delta strain, or any other the test needs to be done in a lab and takes time, many basic test are not forwarded to a lab and the % of delta is worked out over time.. only a couple days at best.. but it is frustrating to say the least.. I had pictured the detection as a lab test at the local clinic..

I suppose this makes the nay sayers happy but I do not think refusing to admit to the shortcomings that have to be worked around has any value.. everyone should know what the process involves..
