Here's an article on the subject by the crackpot tin-foil hat outlet....the Atlantic...hmmmmm apparently the Atlantic don't believe in science or whatever dumb line.
I'm personally fully vaccinated, and I support vaccines, but even I know that this is over the top hyperbole.Quote:

That’s not true.Quote:

And it's been well-timed, with the thousands of kids currently filling children's hospitals or out of school in quarantine due to exposure. I also notice he doesn't mention RSV or MIS-C, both of which have seen a rise in children, or long COVID, which I've already shown seems to be effecting a significant number of kids.Quote:

He also does not mention anywhere that children are not the only ones in the building, unless he went to very different schools than I did.
And then there's this:
"Unfortunately, the downside of school mask requirements for children has been difficult to assess systematically because, until this pandemic, face-covering policies were never previously imposed on so many children for such a long period of time. Longitudinal studies cannot be performed on long-term outcomes, because there are no children in prior generations to study."
Again, this is not true. Ignorance of the 1918 pandemic is a surprisingly widespread thing, though, which is weird given how relatively recent it was.
Moving on, we have the same old "death is the old negative outcome" trope from you, yawn.
I'm glad to hear people who cannot be vaccinated are no longer at risk!Quote:

You also have kids who can’t be vaccinated, immunocompromised who the vaccine has lesser effects on, and then breakthrough infections on vaccinated individuals who by being around more unvaccinated have a higher risk there.
And then of course there’s mutation risk, which for a country that has the vaccines available (unlike many 2nd and 3rd world countries), is inexcusable for our rates to be this low for something that is so easy, painless and nearly risk free to get.
And again, when compared against the faux outrage and their self proclaimed patriotism spouted in other areas. No, its really not hyperbole at all to talk about how selfish and unpatriotic these individuals are.

Oh yea and there’s the ancillary effects of them running to the hospital when they actually get too sick (because then they magically believe in science to help them).
And now we have full beds and care taken up by unvaccinated covid 19 patients reducing the quality of care other people receive for other issues.
So no, their selfish actions still **** it up for a wide swath of people.

Yep all those 11 year olds just breathed a sigh of relief!Quote:

In fact, to be honest anyone who touts individual liberties (especially in this case over and against public health) is likewise touting a form of selfishness — defined simply as “the quality of lacking consideration for others and concerned chiefly with one’s own profit or pleasure.”
EDIT: Is selfishness a bad thing? You tell me.
