[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know people at the FDA. Promising vaccines with adult roll out and a good number of adults vaccinated around March 2021. Pediatric studies are not steering yet but will follow. [/quote]

In this [u]optimistic[/u] scenario, if we wait for a vaccine for our children to go back to school, then our children will have missed one and a third years of school. 10% of their K-12 education.[/quote]

Pandemics are inconvenient. [/quote]

If our kids miss 10% of their public schooling, then "inconvenience" is not the right word.

It's not the pandemic that's keeping our kids out of school. It's school officials' belief that the only acceptable level of risk of getting covid at school is: zero.[/quote]

It is the pandemic. And that’s an excellent risk tolerance. Any argument from you to the contrary makes you a bad person and a terrible parent and you should have your children removed from your custody.[/quote]

DP. This is a crazy statement. No one who takes a wider view will agree with you.[/quote]

Ask me how much I care? I am right. It is immaterial whether others agree with me. My objective is not persuasion but explaining to others HOW things will be, not asking whether they agree with it. People like the pp seem to believe their views on this are valid and worthy of being heard. They’re not.[/quote]

Must be nice to go through life with such a simplistic, black and white view of the world, and such certainty of your own righteousness. Fortunately for DCUM, your forum is DCUM, and not any context in which thinking about these dilemmas actually leads to real life decisions.[/quote]
