the way I look at it is that this virus is nowhere near as deadly as it was initially made out to be. This is just fact. Even before we had any vaccines the actual mortality rate for relatively healthy people ages 0-55 was basically 0%. This was a virus that for the most part was killing the elderly (about half of all deaths were people in nursing homes), the obese (CDC reported 80% of hospitalizations were obese people), and the immunocompromised.
Yes, it's a bad virus, but it's not as dangerous as it's been made out to be, not even close. The vaccines are great, they are effective, safe, and they work- and the vaccines are readily available to everybody who wants one. If people want them- great. If they don't- well that's on them. If you're so deathly afraid of COVID- go get the vaccine- it'll protect you and you won't have to worry about it.
The governor of Florida is politicizing this crap- but he is just responding to the school boards in his state that are- wait for it....politicizing this crap.
Whatever happened to trust the science? Study after study has shown that children basically are 99.999999% not affected by COVID at all- even in the extremely rare instances they contract COVID they are asymptomatic like 99.999999% of the time, and oh yeah- the same studies show that children are not spreaders of the virus.
The vaccines are readily available and they work. Every adult that works at the school can take the jab or wear a mask. Putting a mask on the kids goes completely against the science. It's just politicizing this shit and all it does is give stupid people the illusion of safety.
