I’m vaccinated and generally quite pro-vaccine but this is just the anxious adults not coping well with reality thing timr is talking about. The whole “it attacks blood vessels” thing. Kids are largely asymptomatic and incur little damage of this sort. Their bodies heal up and it’s done. There is no real “long term” boogeyman with this virus. You can’t find evidence for this with kids because it doesn’t exist. The virus is gone and done within a couple weeks and it isn’t coming back unless you get reinfected. There is just no mechanism for this long term damage theory I have seen. Some kids have severe cases but it’s exceptionally rare. Yes it’s a virus and it does virus things but it’s really not that exceptional. Too many people are misapplying and misreporting the actual science and risk. To prove otherwise I think the burden is on you to prove such an extraordinary claim for such a relatively mundane virus in the scheme of things.
- tehjoker 5y agoI don't agree. We thought this about adults about a year ago then started to notice brain damage, clotting problems, heart problems, and other organ damage. I'm willing to entertain that children are less vulnerable but I'm not willing to simply assume it and say whoopsie after the fact. Ask me again in a year when we know more.
