Why do these things for something a fraction less deadly to children than H1N1?[/quote]

Wait. Are you going to vaccinate your kids - or not?

No, not for a few years since it's disease that does not affect them and it's a new medical treatment that we don't know the long-term effects of (considering it will have just been released - no amount of tests can simulate years of data).  I'll let your kids be the medical test subjects, considering you'll be there with them the morning they're eligible (even though [b]they'll have more risk on the car ride [/b]to get the vaccinate than they ever did with COVID).

The vast majority of kids under 12 won't get vaccinated anytime soon in the United States, even once it's approved.  How do I know?  Only a minority of 12 to 15 year olds in the United States have been vaccinated. The UK is not going to approve vaccination for that age group, and their medical panel recommended to not do so for 12-15 year olds because of how small the risk of COVID is to them.

But I can't wait until it gets approved for 5 to 11 year olds because there's no longer any excuse for any of these restrictions then.  Not for a disease that will be here forever.  There is already none, but this defeats the last argument of the "COVID is going to kill everyone" crowd.[/quote]

Careful. You sounded like that bike nut who starts inane threads to not-so-subtly push her agenda.

She had COVID, saw it was nothing (like it is for the vast majority of non-obese, people under 50, and especially people under 30) and sees simple statistics now.  She's only stating the facts.[/quote]

Facts about covid or why cars should be banned?  :lol:

Either way, if she draws conclusions about public health based on her individual experience that just shows how she doesn’t understand data or the bigger picture.
