For their health when older, I hope they look into getting exposed to chicken pox ASAP.

Their grandma just died of covid, and while part of me would hope that it would be a wakeup call, the kids are all home-schooled, so they've probably swallowed the narrative that nothing different could have been done; it was just her time to meet Jesus. I hope they don't get chickenpox, personally. I hope they get some life experience that opens their eyes to how ignorant they are.

  I'm not implying they nor their family are ignorant. Chicken pox is easily survivable for children. Less so for older adults. My parents took me to a pox party of other kids specifically to be exposed. Covid is also easily survivable for children, and adults in reasonably good health. I survived corona a year ago and now see no medical reason to get those jabs.

    Immunity to COVID wanes over time, in part because it can take hold on the surfaces of your respiratory tract to a certain point without triggering the ire of your immune system (which is why vaccinated people can spread COVID). To keep yourself from developing a serious case of it, vaccinations need to be periodic, like the flu. You could keep getting it every year or so if you want, but getting it this year isn't going to prevent you from getting it next year

      "To keep yourself from developing a serious case of it, vaccinations need to be periodic" I had it and recovered. I have blood test results and Dr. letter to prove it. The CDC says actual measured outcomes show I am in the category of persons who do better than the jabbed. https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/mm7104e1.htm https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/mm7104e1.htm "By early October, persons who survived a previous infection had lower case rates than persons who were vaccinated alone." Your attempt to tell me to get yearly jabs is similar to what upsets the Canadian protestors. Please stop with the coercion and mandates.

    You don't have to say it, they're my family and I'll tell it like it is: they are ignorant, and deliberately so. Home schooling is all part of the plan. (This is not a generic statement about home schooling, just these particular home-schoolers)
