[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am greatly enjoying this thread. For a few years lots of people were willing to engage all of you in debate about mandates, vaccines, etc. Now these threads are nothing but like minded people howling at the moon. No one bothers to engage you all or push back when you make up non-existent science or hang out with tin-hat conspiracy theorists who think Pfizer is paying off DCPS.

By all means, please proceed... [/quote]

Dude. Only FOUR percent of under 5s are vaccinated, and only 30% of 5-11 are fully vaccinated.  You need to get out of your echo chamber. The vast majority of parents are not worried about their kids getting covid.  At this point, the forces that are turning covid into a disruption that hurts kids are institutions (like DCPS) that are forcing parents to chose between vaccination and their kid staying in school.

As for the "non-existent science," it's quite clear that covid is very low risk for kids, and the vaccine does not stop infection or transmission at any significant rate (maybe not at all in the 5-11 year olds). It's absolutely irrational public policy to exclude kids from school based on their covid vaccination status.

Let's remember again:  we're going on 2.5 years of covid and NOT A SINGLE DC KID has died from covid.  I don't think any have died in MoCo or NOVA either.  [/quote]

YES to all of this!

To back this up, ZERO kids age 0-17 have died of Covid in Montgomery County.  ZERO.  Here is a link to back up that FACT.

How can any public health official justify a mandate for 12 year olds kids?  Especially when the shot doesn’t prevent transmission.  It is 100% unethical.

Mandate for nursing homes?  Sure, maybe I could support that.  But a mandate for kids?  That is unnecessary, and quite honestly, does make me suspicious of what is going on.  [/quote]
