Dr Oz, appearing on Fox News, just said schools should reopen because only 2-3% of children will die. I am not ok with my children being in that 2-3%. Are you?

Repubs party of pro life is the biggest fraud and misconception out there. 

Die or get sick?  Cause that’s insane if he said that.

I can’t stand Oz and fox, but that’s not what he said. He said reopening schools would increase the overall death rate by 2-3%. The data is clear, the risk of death in people under 20 is almost zero.

That guy on twitter who made that claim about oz is a tool.

Mortality rate. Death. Republicans and conservatives have been talking crazy and saying all sorts of idiotic poo. They are a death cult and worship their bank accounts and not God.

Has Dr. Oz ever been right about anything? 2-3% mortality rate for children is wildly inaccurate. It's way lower than that. The reason why schools are closed is because children are so likely to be asymptomatic carriers so the disease is much harder to identify and track within that population segment.

Dr. Oz is a snake oil salesman idiot.

He said “2 to 3% in terms of total mortality.” Total, not 2-3% of kids.

Is the mortality rate even that high among the elderly?

I honestly have no idea what he's basing those figures on. It's really difficult to put a numeric figure on how many people would be infected by a population that has over an 80% asymptomatic rate from a highly infectious virus.

Does he offer up stats on the teachers, administrators, counselors,nurses, janitorial staff, and bus drivers who will be in close contact with these little super-spreaders?

I’m sure he has an açaí berry bill or a special colon detox plan to help.

Dunno about the elderly, but it's about 5% overall.

I didn't see the clip, but could he mean 2-3% more people overall die?

Lets say 40,000 people in the country die with schools being closed, opening schools increases that by 2%, which is 800.  So now 40800 people die, doesn't necessarily mean 800 more kids.
