Except that the infection rate for children under 18 is almost zero. They don't get it, they can't carry it, and they can't transmit it.

There are currently more kids in hospitals with Respiratory Syncytial Virus, or RSV than anything else. RSV is also known as the Common Cold.

There is some evidence that the vaccine causes more reactions in kids than in adults. IOW, the potential risks outweigh the potential benefits. This not the norm for well established vaccines that are commonly administered to children. Polio, MMR, Tetanus, etc... have long track records of preventing illnesses.

My one year old grandson had it recently and my 12 year old niece did as well. My daughter is a 3rd grade school teacher and they definitely have kids out with Covid. I think the delta variant is changing the thinking on children not getting it. Fortunately it appears that even though they get Delta, they handle it quite well.

You should look at the demographics of who is not getting the vaccine. Hint: It's not what you might think from watching the media.

Look at the vaccination rates by location, age, and race. You'll be surprised.

I live in Louisiana, I believe we are number one or close to it in unvaccinated. We also lead in Covid deaths. Ole Louisiana has always been number one in all the wrong things. I have a suspicion that if Trump would have won and held vaccination rallies we would be number one in vaccinations [emoji3]

Most information coming out are about vaccinated and unvaccinated people and odds of getting the D variation.

I wish more was discussed about people who have already had covid in the past and are now getting the D variation.

Has the biggest group of people getting the D variation, getting it as first time covid? Or is there a larger group getting covid for a second time?

Why is the white house staff not mandated to get the vaccine? Kinda seems weird we all "should" but the white house staff doesn't have to
 
Who is 'mandated' to get vaccinated? Some employers require it (some because not requiring it endangers their Federal funding), not the government.

Don't want it? Don't take it. If your boss requires it, this is America - get a different job if it's a big deal to you.

I can't help comparing this vaccine resistance to the Americans now 'trapped' in Afghanistan after the Embassy there advised them to leave immediately on June 28. Everybody is making decisions and needs to be prepared to live with them.

I agree. 100%. But when people are REALLY trying to push this, and the Gov. isn't mandating it, yet want these COVID "passports" it becomes interesting

Not interesting at all. If you don't want to show proof of vaccination or negative COVID test when a business or agency you are trying to use requires, go somewhere else or do without.

Not that simple. Look at NYC for example.
More and more places are attempting to "require" this
 
Visit some other city.

New Indoor Activity Restrictions

Starting August 17, only vaccinated people in NYC will be allowed at various public indoor activities.

Learn more about these new requirements and the different ways you can prove you have been vaccinated.

Don't miss out. Show us your vax. Proof of vaccination includes: CDC vaccine card, NYC COVID Safe app, NYS Excelsior Pass, Other official vaccine record.

Vaccination Proof for Indoor Activities (Key to NYC)

Starting August 17, people 12 and older will be required to show proof they have received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine authorized for emergency use by the FDA or WHO for:

Indoor dining

You don't feel like you have the option to get the vaccine? If the vaccine works, you'd have no concern. COVID is never going away, so we're suppose to do this forever? Its time to open up, let the family owned business run.

I have to disagree. I can't visit an entire city? Thats a bit much. It shouldn't be mandatory, it shouldn't be a "we" vs me either

Then feel free to come down and visit Miami - it's full of New Yorkers anyway.

Our motto used to be "Florida - Arrive Alive!".

Now it's " Florida - Hope you make it out alive!" :mad:
 
So I just have to take a vaccine pushed by the same people who funded the creation of covid to be safe from covid. Sounds legit. Hold those who created it accountable. Get well soon.

OK, hold those accountable if they
truly exist. Fine them, jail them,
execute them.

Now, what's your plan to rid the world
of the deadly Covid pandemic? :cool:

Get off the grid, live off the land and hope the deer I shoot aren't infected. I won't take the ones who can't run fast. That's the idea anyway.

You understand that COVID is here for life, correct? Its like the flu, mutations all of the time, boosters required, etc. If the former chief scientist of Pfizer is questioning the vaccine, the white house isn't making it mandatory *tin foil hat* but something doesn't seem right, especially for something with a 99.8% survival rate.
