I am in this category why are schools still open... cause the kids dont get sick - if they do like anyoine esle go home to bed for 14 days and act as if it is the flu, that comes around every year

They are actually between a rock and a hard place. What happens if they do not go into lockdown and the virus runs rampant? Have you seen what happens to people who need intensive care? Do you know how many people our hospitals (in a First World country) can cope with? Hence the need to "flatten the curve"!!
