"We still don't know whether children can get it and transmit it to others," Cornyn told an NBC affiliate in Dallas-Fort Worth.
Public health experts have said children are not immune from the coronavirus.
The Texas Department of State Health Services "Texas Case Counts" website shows that more than 1,700 people under the age of 19 in the state have tested positive for the virus, with 500 of those younger than 10.

And let's not forget he voted to keep the malignant narcissistic sociopath in office and these two have Blood On There Hands with over 133,000 deaths on there watch, and now wannabe Dr Cornyn says that kids can't get this virus and he also doesn't think in his libertarian worldview that the Hero's Act should not be passed to help out front line health care providers............................

And if any were infected in school. Doubt it's possible to get that information as schools closed pretty early on and I don't think contact tracing was happening.

can be carriers too of the CV.
Idiot. There should be an intelligence test given to every senator/house representative every year and they should get a passing score of at least 70%. If they fail, a special election should be called immediately and the senator ousted.
I'm sick and tired of stupid people, no wonder these people are senators and the like, they are literally too stupid to be anything else.
