[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's be real here - the true reason conservatives want to end vaccine mandates is so they can have another bs culture war win. That's what this is really about[/quote]

Or maybe I don’t want my perfectly healthy athlete son who already has natural immunity to be shot up with boosters for absolutely no reason- and to be basically one of the only people in the country forced to do it in order to pursue his life goals. [/quote]

The natural immunity line is such BS, studies have proven it doesn't last very long. Unless your son catches COVID again by the fall, he won't have immunity any longer.[/quote]

But with their attitude, it is likely their kid will have Long Covid sometime soon.

Fact is Covid is NOT always a minor thing for 18-30yo.  My kid got covid in 2020 before vaccines, and to this day still has long covid issues.  Fact is they still have health issues---previously healthy 24 yo can now only exercise for 15 mins before being completely exhausted (and that's a huge improvement in the last 2.5 years).  Previously could play Basketball and other sports for 2-3 hours with friends.

DOn't like the rules, your kid is free to select somewhere else to attend.  Plenty of schools in the Red states without any vaccine requirements, so select one there that suites your kids desires.  
Nobody is forcing you to get a vaccine. [/quote]

My kid should be able to go to any college he chooses without being forced to take this injection. His choices should in no way be limited. Half the Ivy League has already dropped the mandate- this is no longer just a red state thing. Nobody is preventing any other kid from getting the vaccine if they believe it works.[/quote]

well you may think that but you are wrong. colleges are separate entities and allowed to set the rules as THEY deem appropriate and necessary.   If a college determines your kid needs vaccinations A, B and C in order to matriculate as a student, you then have a choice: follow the rules or choose to attend school elsewhere. Similarly, if an employer chooses to require the vaccine ( a few still do), you are free not to get it and take your employment elsewhere.  You are free to do whatever the hell you want, but if other places have rules in place you need to follow them or go elsewhere.   So nobody is forcing you to get the vax.  You can choose not to, but you won't be allow to matriculate at many schools who still require it.  Don't like it, then you are free to choose a school that suites your choices.  You get all the choices you want, but there are consequences for your choices and you have to live with them. Really it's quite simple.
