So in a classroom with 15 kids breathing in and out, talking etc, for hours, with an airborne virus, seems the teachers will catch it.

  We don't know this either. May be age-dependent.

    Ever caught a cold from your kid, who didn't have it bad? I have. It's highly likely this is the same, and the burden of proof is on those who want to say this coronavirus is the exception.

      > Ever caught a cold from your kid, who didn't have it bad? I have. Of course, and so has every parent -- what, exactly, are you implying, that the people studying this haven't had this experience? And are therefore not considering that kids can have mild symptoms but still be contagious? If so, that's an awful lot of ignorance that you are ascribing to everyone studying this with an opinion that doesn't match your lived experience with other viruses. If not, please enlighten me. > It's highly likely this is the same, and the burden of proof is on those who want to say this coronavirus is the exception. Yes. You are literally commenting in a thread about a paper that is trying to provide evidence ("burden of proof") by looking at differential rates of illness, and not simply drawing inferences from general facts about viruses -- which is what you are doing here.
