Nearly 30 children at Texas Children's Hospital in Houston have both COVID-19 and RSV

"You’ve got two potentially fatal diseases attacking the same child so we take that very, very seriously,” the chief of critical care at TCH said.

I couldn't let my kid go back to school this year. She's being home schooled. They shouldn't opened up the schools this early putting these babies at risk like this or at least social distance them. "They" know this virus is here to stay and it's mutating rapidly

That whole “parents choice” on masking in schools is really working out well for y’all.
really sad for the kids.

Why are the schools open!! Hello Close the schools

What I want to know is what is the average hospitalization for RSV and the flu regularly? They always give facts but never give any other numbers to compare it too.

[demiaanderson]

So what if we change days and shorten classes? A certain amount of kids per class a day. Instead of 30 kids a class, 15 or even 10, cut classes from 8 hours to 3 hours and highschool classes to 30 minutes instead of an hour. Yes curriculum will slow, but wouldn't you rather slower school system than hundreds of sick kids and too many outbreaks

My 4 year old got it from my cousin since she works at a daycare. Then all my children had got it. No medicine they say but it went away within a week cough stayed about 2 weeks

Didn't most get vaccinated!! Because that same as flu shots you still get COVID!! Praying for the world!!

[kathleenchan]

The parents say: their children cannot breath with the mask; now I sincerely hope your children can breath with the ventilator~

[hectorlopez]

We wish that the children are going to be okay.

My son 11, had covid and got over it. So did my mom, dad, brother and sister. None of them went to the hospital. Everyone doesn't need to flood the hospital. Some can take over the counter drugs. And give your children vitamins and eat a little healthier. The same for adults. I had it for only three days and I didn't go to the hospital. I got covid19 last year and then the variant just 2 weeks ago. I got better in a matter of days. If u can't breathe is the only reason to go to the emergency room.

I got the RSV three weeks ago and I'm still wheezing.

Kids can wear masks to school and even daycare. They can get used to anything if parents do their part.

[jojonjessgarcia]

It’s cause parents still send there kids to school the numbers will rise and there everyone will be back at home learning virtual and then there’s goes the parents crying and complaining well gesssh you think if your kid is sick keep them home or get them vaccinated

[kathylgoedert]

How can we explain the deep denial of these children's parents, to the extent that infants and children are actually dying?

[omars-qzrn]

wtf…this is just the beginning of something bigger

[gabbystime]

Thank you governor you're a great leader for Texas.

[kweenkashmereiman]

I guess I will be getting truancy these are my kids not the government kids and I will not let them be exposed as a test to get covid. I wish more parents would stand with me. My rules No SCHOOL!!

[hectorlopez]

This virus is getting out of control. Stay safe and wear a mask.

[noone-hgfg]

So 1 covid and 29 RSV sounds about right
