If kids miss school because they are unvaccinated, too bad. The parents can weigh that as part of the pros and cons of getting vaccinated. Those families don’t get to have it both ways - no vaccine AND no quarantine. [/quote]

Considering black and Hispanic community have the lowest vaccine uptake, and white Democrats have the highest vaccine uptake, especially affluent ones, this statement is really just

[b]"Screw all those black and brown kids who have to miss school (I don't believe in the ultra-low risk of COVID to kids, even more so after my child got vaccinated). My paranoia over COVID comes before brown and black little kids' education."[/b][/quote]

There is nothing stopping those families from getting vaccinated. They can walk in to Arlington Mill or Walter Reed without an appointment evenings and weekends. They can go to CVS or Giant. This is not a matter of expense or convenience. This is not March 2021 when a bunch of privileged white people with fast computers and stable internet were snapping up all the appointment times. The reasons people are choosing not to get vaccinated are cultural and nuanced - but it is literally a choice. [/quote]
