I have just received information about a family that has locked up their child at home in isolation because she complained of some aches in her body. They suspected the child as having C19. She was tested and after a couple of days, the test came out negative. 1/n

The girl has already been in isolation for 4 days. Now they are waiting to do another PCR test today to check again because they fear that the first test was done too early and it didn't detect covid. So this little girl will remain in isolation for at least another 24 hrs. 2/n
This is idiocy. Insanity. Ignorance. Cruelty. Simply a crime against children.
The stupid fear and the stupid policies are driving parents to abuse their children. 3/n
Children are not the main source of C19 transmission. 4/n

Children mostly get an asymptomatic presentation of the C19. Asymptomatic transmission is a negligible route of transmission. 6/n

"Increased household exposure to young children was associated with an attenuated risk of testing positive for SARS-CoV-2 and appeared to also be associated with an attenuated risk of COVID-19 disease severe enough to require hospitalisation." 7/n

Children offer a protective effect to adults. They mainly have asymptomatic presentations. This rarely leads to a negative outcome. The disease should be allowed to spread as fast as possible amongst children in order to build cost-free herd immunity & protect the vulnerable. 8/n
Stop turning children into granny killers or infectious monsters. You are traumatizing children and causing them irreparable harm. Anxiety. OCD. PTSD. All can be clearly observed. And please stop abusing them. Don't isolate them for God's sake! 9/n
Children should be back in face-to-face schooling. Education matters. No masks. No separators. No marks on the ground. No social distancing. No testing. No contact tracing. No isolation.
Just leave the kids out of this adult insanity. 10/10

THREAD: 12 Things Everyone Should Know About IQ

1. IQ is one of the most heritable psychological traits – that is, individual differences in IQ are strongly associated with individual differences in genes (at least in fairly typical modern environments). https://t.co/3XxzW9bxLE


2. The heritability of IQ *increases* from childhood to adulthood. Meanwhile, the effect of the shared environment largely fades away. In other words, when it comes to IQ, nature becomes more important as we get older, nurture less.
https://t.co/UqtS1lpw3n


3. IQ scores have been increasing for the last century or so, a phenomenon known as the Flynn effect. https://t.co/sCZvCst3hw (N ≈ 4 million)

(Note that the Flynn effect shows that IQ isn't 100% genetic; it doesn't show that it's 100% environmental.)


4. IQ predicts many important real world outcomes.

For example, though far from perfect, IQ is the single-best predictor of job performance we have – much better than Emotional Intelligence, the Big Five, Grit, etc. https://t.co/rKUgKDAAVx https://t.co/DWbVI8QSU3


5. Higher IQ is associated with a lower risk of death from most causes, including cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, most forms of cancer, homicide, suicide, and accident. https://t.co/PJjGNyeQRA (N = 728,160)
