- andscoop 4y agoAs someone who was vaccinated three times, obeyed quarantine and had a kid during the pandemic— I don’t think that stat is having the effect you intended. Kids were relatively resilient from the virus. Now addressing the logic in your response, are you suggesting we should have similar school shutdown measures for the flu every year? For a similar three year period influenza will kill 400-600 kids.
- TurkishPoptart 4y agoI'm curious how this compares to other causes of deaths for kids under 18. I'm sure there have been more teen suicides, overdoses, accidents, and car accidents that tragically ended lives (about which the government largely does nothing, except for the National Suicide Hotline, which is important).
