New infections means new opportunities to mutate, does it not? So maybe it silently infects kids now, but, through infecting kids, it changes enough to evade current vaccines, or, starts producing more symptoms in kids.
I don't know how likely either of these scenarios is. But it seems like leaving kids unvax'd allows a possible reservoir of virus that could resurface and affect people.
- pengaru 5y agoit's not like we'll ever get anywhere near all US adults to take the vaccine anyways, the subject has become far too politicized. At this point there's a substantial chunk of the US population hellbent on demonstrating the lockdowns and vaccines and everything that's been done throughout 2020 was completely unnecessary, by simply continuing to do nothing. They will never take a vaccine, they'll risk getting sick and let the natural immunity unfold. They're more concerned with overturning the 2020 election results.
