Leana Wen on CNN: Gee, There's This New Study That Says That School Closures Have Caused Major Developmental Delays in Schoolchildren

You.

Don't.

Say.

But I thought kids were resilient -- the teachers unions and their Democrat politician servants told me so.

Are they not resilient?

I wonder if Leana Wen's Sudden New Willingness to consider the harms that lockdowns, "virtual learning," and masking cause to children might have anything to do with the polling.


In case you missed it, Brandon's own pollster found that his "Covid Zero" policy was disastrous and wrote a series of recommendations backing away from that policy.

Quelle coincidence!

By the way, Leana Wen should know about the outer limits of resiliency in children -- she used to run Planned Parenthood. She's had hands-on experience testing their physical resiliency.

The study examined student performance in Uruguay, where they could compare students whose schools had never shut down, and students whose schools had shut down and then reopened. The big takeaway is that shutdowns harmed students, and the lower on the socioeconomic scale the student, the greater the harm.

(Citations omitted.)

We found that children who were in preschool during the pandemic experienced negative outcomes in multiple developmental domains. This converges with extant literature documenting learning losses in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic among school-age children, but we were the first to our knowledge to document the impact on school readiness among preschoolers. Though we cannot attribute developmental losses to school closures specifically, our findings also converge with studies documenting detrimental effects on learning of school closures during summer recess or emergencies leading to school closures. We found the cognitive and motor development of children was suffering the most, followed by their attitudes toward learning. Within cognitive functioning, Self-projection, Language and Logical-mathematical skills showed the largest losses but effect sizes were small. Nevertheless, these losses could pose a threat to educational achievement later in life. For instance, literature on school readiness highlights that early math and literacy performance are strong predictors of academic outcomes in primary school. Indeed, health and economic crises may have repercussions on the life course years later. Furthermore, these areas of functioning may be the most difficult to compensate for at home because they require teaching expertise, age-appropriate activities and materials, and are highly dependent on the quality of stimulation from caregivers. Time-structured activities and events were reduced during the pandemic, which could impact the development of self-projection. Similarly, stay-at-home measures led to a drastic decrease in physical activity, which may explain the underdevelopment of motor skills. As there have been few to no studies on the impact of the pandemic on these developmental areas, it would be relevant to develop further research on the topic among preschool-age children.

The study also found increases in stress and behavioral problems in children.

From last month in the National Pulse: Mask mandates causing an increase in child speech delays; one clinic sees a 350% increase in clients.

Hey, as long as the teachers "feel protected," though. That's all that matters.

"This has been a very challenging year," emphasized Jaclyn Theek, a clinic director and speech-language pathologist at the Speech and Learning Institute in North Palm Beach, Florida.

The clinic experienced a 364 percent increase in patients who were babies and toddlers amidst the pandemic. Prior to the onset of COVID-19, only 5 percent of the clinic's patients were in the age group, while today it stands at 20 percent.

"There's no research out there yet saying that this could be causing speech and language delays. But, most definitely, I'm sure it's a factor," Theek said. "It's very important that kids do see your face to learn, so they're watching your mouth."

Similarly, many parents interviewed by WPBF 25 News felt the irregular speech patterns were "COVID-delayed." A parent interviewed by the outlet attributed the delays to "social isolation and everyone wearing masks":

45 So thread is covid, let me talk covid.

Looking at the Japan data, all the prefectures are starting to flatline at about 30 to 40 infections / day / 10,000 people.

This is very new. It is a higher rate than all past waves, but not as high as the peak from this wave. All past waves went away as quick as they came on. My thinking is that they are seeing the same thing all over, and deciding that it is now endemic. (thanks to the vaccine.) and there ain't nothing anyone can do about it. (Japan is nice, since the mitigation effort has been consistent, the data is reliable, and it is concentrated so all 125 M people are affected all at once.)

52 Don't set "COVID Zero" as the victory condition. ... a disease with fatality rates like the flu - because most of us took the personal responsibility ... by getting vaccinated. 77% [of Americans] agree that "it is inevitable that most people in the US will eventually get COVID-19," ...

That's like a master class in abject stupidity. Truly astounding. "COVID Zero" is a bad goal not because it's preposterous and impossible, but because people aren't buying in anymore. Symptoms are mild and mortality is low because we got vaccinated, yet more than three quarters of people expect that getting it is inevitable.

98 Some takeaways for society as a whole, that we will ignore, because we are a broken society now

1) Doing *something* is not always better then doing nothing. Measure whether the thing you are doing is working, and if it is not, STOP.

2) Do not trust closed societies - either China or Fauci's medical establishment. It is easy to keep lies going for a long time if you can be punished for telling the truth.

3) Break up the medical establishment in the US, and make it harder for them to work across national boundaries. When medical policy in almost every western country is decided by one guy - Fauci - we have already failed

A large factor in the willingness of Russian forces to sacrifice for Mother Russia (or the lack thereof) is likely the lack of a "mortal danger" represented by Ukraine. Sure, a military adventure might seem like fun in the abstract when psyching up yourself and your buddies, until the tanks start opening up like a Jiffypop popcorn tin.

Nothing really new, but it confirms that 50 page rant Putin put out in July about Ukrainian history, as well as other Putin speeches about how the West doesn't like Russia but the West is done and the world is now multipolar because the US is falling apart.

It affirms the assumption that Putin expected a quick victory, planned to take the whole country, and is rebuilding the Russian empire.

What is most worrying about this is that if you look at it this way, then there is no way Putin will back down or accept a loss. He has been making this case for too long, and too hard. This is his legacy.

If he backs down without Ukraine in his sphere (like Belarus,) then all his talk in recent years, and all his ranting will just support the argument that his failed invasion destroyed Russia. No way he can back down.

WSJ: Ukraine Cuts Links to Russian Electric Grid

Before Russia invaded Ukraine last week, national grid operator Ukrenergo had planned -- as part of a project under way since 2017 -- to gradually switch connections, likely over the next year. By chance, on the day Russia attacked -- Thursday, Feb. 24 -- Ukrenergo was conducting a test disconnection from Russia. After the test, Ukraine opted not to reconnect.

------

Well, it looked like he was going to grab two russian friendly parts of Ukraine but he decided to do a soft and slow grab of Kiev as well as other non-russian-friendly parts.

I think he figured Germany was cucked because it's winter and they need Russia's gas.

I don't think anyone thought useless Europe would actually care. The reaction caught me by surprise just as Putin's apparent too-broad attack has. But, here's the thing, we have no idea what's going on. Everything's a lie.

The push to Kiev seems to reflect that. Ukraine concentrated most of their best troops and vast majority of their forces to the east, because that's where Russia was posturing most of its troops. But that area is also where the Russians seem to have pushed the least. Ukraine's Belarus border troops were greener and so overrun fairly quickly.

269 . But that area is also where the Russians seem to have pushed the least. Ukraine's Belarus border troops were greener and so overrun fairly quickly.

Russians units raced 100 miles down from Belarus to Kiev on the west side of the Dnieper on day 1 and seem to have sat there since then.

Why? Are they waiting for infantry to walk down (which would take ~10 days). Are they waiting for supplies? Are they waiting for units to get on the east side to besiege Kiev?

Or...are they nothing more then a distraction pulling in Ukes best forces to defend the capital?

Who knows if Putin is sick or not? Who knows if he's gone nuts or not? Maybe those are reasons. Maybe it's an attempt to begin rebuilding the Russian empire. Or the Soviet one. Or maybe he has a near-term goal to Finlandize Ukraine by hook or crook, before it fully breaks away from his sphere of influence. Maybe he planned on a quick victory, and maybe this is a setback.

Maybe, maybe, maybe.

None of it matters. The Russian State has its course laid out, and will see it through. They aren't going to back down because Westerners don't like it; if anything, Western interference will harden their resolve, since the West poses no meaningful threat.

The only foreign influence on decision-making for them would be China, and I just can't imagine a near-term scenario where the Chinese would oppose their moves in Ukraine.

Originally the argument with the clot shot was that the mRNA and the spike proteins stayed in your arm muscle - letting you build immunity without damage in other parts of your body (because remember it damages your cells to make the spike proteins).

But we know the proteins, and I guess now we know the mRNA serum, travel through your blood stream and damage whatever organs they interact with. This is...bad. This is almost like causing random cancers in people.

This is the BS excuse the Pedophiles, Transexuals, and child porn advocates all believe. They can abuse kids cause they'll get over it. And there is a reason these beliefs overlap with leftism, kids are utilitarian and merely cogs in a machine. They serve no purpose but to serve the state and the desires of the state.

334 Does cancer have its own type of DNA in the body or is it a Corruption of your own DNA?

I think cancer is generally damage to the existing DNA - so the cell starts reproducing in ways it is not supposed to.

Hopefully if the mRNA is getting transcribed into the DNA of cells in random organs it is creating cells your body will identify and kill.

But...we also know the clot shot weakens the immune system overall (at least for a while not yet known if it is permanent or not).

Posted by: 18-1 at February 28, 2022 03:06 PM (ESjRY)

335 Another point from my above comments.

It makes the case that the world is multipolar, because the US is done, and that means no more of the Anglo globalization project. That makes the French/German Europe independent from those damn Anglos (not sure how much is in the doc I linked, I read a lot of Putin and Akopv last night.)

This comports with Putin trying to cozy up to Germany, anyway. He sees them as a way to divide Europe. Again, nothing new, but it supports what everyone suspected.

And anyway, that seems to be undone now.

This is not a comparison of Putin to Hitler, which is silly.

But, I think Putin is making the same assessment of the Western democracies' diplomatic encirclement that Hitler did: that they are "pathetic worms," and that they pose no serious threat to his given plans, and that he can break through that encirclement at a low cost by means of physical force.

Now, Nazi Germany was obviously wrong about that, as ensuing events showed. Is Putin's Russia also wrong, today? I don't think really think it is.

Now, Nazi Germany was obviously wrong about that, as ensuing events showed. Is Putin's Russia also wrong, today? I don't think really think it is.

387 So, hopefully one of our resident medicos will correct me, but my understanding is that as we age, our cells accumulate damage in their DNA. There are also external factors that can contribute to that type of damage (radiation, etc.). We have natural mechanisms to identify and correct that damage. When those mechanisms fail, the damage in the cell DNA starts getting copied to new cells.

When that copying gets out of control and the damaged cells start reproducing like crazy, taking over the cells that were functioning correctly so that the affected systems of your body start shutting down, that's cancer. It isn't something you can "catch". (This is also why certain cancers are more likely to be fatal - it depends on the affected system. Breast cancer if caught early is very survivable. Bone marrow cancer, on the other hand...)

There is a large argument about the genesis of cancers, if it is broken or misread DNA, epigenetic changes and environmental triggers, or viral changes (like human papilloma) There is a possibility that a cancer could be a foreign infection from cancer cells as well.
However all the funding right now goes to the Misread/Broken DNA research, so like with alternative Covid treatments, other paths are being neglected.

448 INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - A top Republican Indiana legislator on education policy has apologized for comments suggesting Black students don't perform better academically because they lack "respect for learning."

House Education Committee Chairman Bob Behning of Indianapolis made the remark last week while pointing out that just 30 out of 1,000 Black students in the Indianapolis Public Schools system passed both the English and math portions of the state's ILEARN standardized exam last year.

Posted by: Darrell Harris at February 28, 2022 03:21 PM (dj6fN)


Even in the projects there are isolated success stories. I used to do math tutoring at a local community college. There was a student doing likewise that would probably influence most approaching people, white or black, to cross the street. He was incredibly talented when it came to math. He was bored at home and picked up his older sister's math book and just absorbed it like a sponge. He was smart enough to get his school to place him in advanced classes and the rest is history. I lost track of him but I wouldn't bet against him being a success.

Russia doesn't want to border NATO. Any border dispute then threatens to become an existential war they have little chance of winning. They went to war with Georgia when there was talks about them joining NATO as well.

-----------------
Blago, there is sound reasoning and information that the vaxx does reduce your immune system to the extent that other existing viruses can come out to play. Similar to acquired immunity deficit syndrome.

Herpes is another one that apparently erupts. The heart palpitations are a known side effect. I would consider taking blood pressure, pulse and blood oxygen on a regular basis. The villain is the vaxx locks onto ACE2 receptor sights to prevent the Covid virus from using them to replicate. However, many of those receptors play a vital role in regulating the heart, blood pressure, etc.

Might want to visit a cardiologist if this has been going on for a bit. EKG's are cheap insurance for peace of mind.

586 Putin will feed his troops with the proceeds from oil and natural gas sales, the prices of which have skyrocketed.
BTW the US is spending about $20million per day on Russian energy.
And then there's the European market, which is enormous.
Biden's policy of destroying our own energy independence really was an exploding cigar.
It's the damndest thing I've ever seen in foreign policy failures.

597 3 miles an hour for 8 hours total with rests for sock changes, meals, and water works out to about 25 miles in a 10 hour day. Faster and longer is certainly possible, but you'll have a spent force when you get there.

Missing the point gourmand, you have to have secure logistics lines in order to feed and supply the troops--this is an old problem with besieging a city or castle. A lot of sieges were broken up because the besiegers themselves weren't getting fed.

599 Yup, I was just hallucinating my childhood where I was called an Oreo for studying, rather than playing around at school. Make no mistake, there are plenty of black families that respect learning greatly. In the housing projects where I grew up, however, not so much.
Posted by: Darrell Harris

A friend of mine who's a middle school Social Studies teacher told me years ago that a few black kids were the outstanding students in every one of her classes. The establishment labels them "overachievers," meaning they perform at a higher level than their IQ's would predict.

In every case, these kids are from homes that strongly emphasize learning, with parents who are closely involved . Most are also from religious families.

She was telling me this because she was doing a slow burn at the bullying and ostracism the high-achievers suffered at the hands of other black kids. She said the mistreatment was relentless, and the school refused to do anything about it.

612 Look up our own supply problems in Iraq and our logistics system is far better than the Russians.

100 miles is a long distance in unfriendly territory and so far there apparently are not enough troops to secure supply lines so they have to move in convoys. Convoys though have their own issues.

Estimate are that it costs roughly 3 billion or so dollars per day for the Russian army to be in the field. With the Swift and ruble devaluation, supply issues could well be getting tougher and Russia hasn't had time to win the bonus for the high prices.

Plus, high oil prices piss off China as a massive importer who has its own economic problems.

Nationalism is not enough. Putin support himself, probably viewing himself as owner and king of the manor, Xi similarly. The argument between the Putins and Xis versus the Globalists is which set of rulers get to rule humanity. That is a sucker's game for the plebes. Essentially, if you are not lead dog under either set of rulers, you spend a lot of time looking at ass in front of you.
