@EricTopol If you want to see what happens when B.1.1.7 becomes the dominant strain, you can look at Ireland, now the highest new cases per capita globally
@dgurdasani1 I've been a hearing a lot about how children are more infectious *now* & contribute to transmission because of the B117 variant, but didn't before. This is a myth. Children & schools have always played an important role in transmission. Time to lay this to rest. Thread.
@DrEricDing 1·î3Æü NEW—hospital admissions *by age* in England —children 5 years old & under is surging, kids 6-17 also elevated. Pediatric hospitalization curves are outpacing adults. Is it schools or new variant? but kids 0-5 are typically not in formal schools.
