In the stuff I'm reading lately, it seems vaccines might not have much effect on long covid from mild cases. Covid is a systematic disease that triggers auto-immunity. For kids, my gut says its better to get the vaccine, but I could be persuaded that it won't do much for them as the data come out. This would place greater emphasis on NPI (distancing, N95 masks, ventilation) to prevent them from catching it at all. I get that this may not be realistic for kids, but the alternative imo is that we're going to injure the next generation. Maybe we're just doomed. Nonetheless, at times when COVID is peaking in transmission, I think schools should be shut down to protect kids and the adults they come into contact with. In a month or two, transmission should decline. Opening schools will increase transmission again, but America seems to have no capacity to really tackle this.
