All initial restrictions were to slow the spread of the virus to prevent overwhelming healthcare systems, not to prevent children from getting ill specifically, as literally everyone knows.


That argument holds true only for the first month or so. Once governors started closing unused field hospitals and then extending their stay at home order instead of celebrating Covid not being nearly as bad as predicted… once that happened your argument no longer remains valid.

The day those field hospitals closed was the day data left the building entirely… we should have opened everything back up when those field hospitals shut down… we should have celebrated that Covid was not the threat it was originally believed to be.
