A question,

If children under 15 are less likely to either A. contract the illness, or B. have symptoms so mild as to avoid diagnosis, does it mean they are not a carrier?

I mean this as an honest question. If they can have the virus and be a carrier while showing no/minimum symptoms could this be even more problematic?

I do not know enough about how this spreads to have even a moderately intelligent understanding of the risks.

You fit the mold then to start posting all sorts of drivel here on APC... except stop conceding your lack of expertise!

Interesting, I just saw that.

As a practical matter, if (!) crews have to "self quarantine" for 2 weeks after returning from either China or Italy, that would explain why flights are no longer feasible, even if the chances for contagion are slight.

there are some areas I know a little bit about.

Virus type stuff ain’t one of them!

chances are high they
1) get the virus
2) spread the virus
3) have minimal symptoms (cough/sneeze a little for a day)

I wonder what it is about a child’s physiology that the virus doesn’t have a strong effect?

That's probably the question epidemiologists are trying to find out.. And I doubt any of them frequent this board.

hard to say. It’s unusual - kids or at least babies are often very susceptible to infectious disease but it’s not without precedent
