Covid 19 conspiracies dump

[Rev. Rye]

871 child deaths out of around 72 million children, by your numbers. That's a very small chance of dying of covid, and that's not even taking into account children who were already in poor health/ had co-morbidities, so the number is quite a bit lower when talking about healthy children. These numbers are certainly not to the point where we need to be mandating the vaccine for school children.

I never claimed an adult shouldn't take the vaccine because of this new Pfizer data. If people on the forum had it their way though, I bet they would rather this information be covered up and not released, just so people don't use it as an excuse not to get vaccinated. The ends justify the means. In this manner, people here are acting like Christians covering up their ears, not wanting to hear information. They would prefer this information is kept covered up and somehow they have become shills for big pharma, which is the opposite of what places like this forum used to be. It's such a shame. No matter which way people want to interpret the data, Freedom of Information Act releases should always been seen as a good thing. The more information we have to assess a situation, the better, and this will always be the case.

So I take it that things like children transmitting the virus to more vulnerable adults or the fact that 25% of children who show symptoms end up developing long-haul COVID simply don’t matter in your eyes? That the 1 in 4 chance that their illness will end up going on for months on end is less meaningful than the fact that their chances of dying are minuscule? That because of that there’s no point in insisting on them getting vaccinated, even though not only are they still extremely effective in preventing not only the disease, but serious complications in those who still ended up getting it, but mandatory vaccines for children for diseases far more likely to kill adults have been around for decades in many jurisdictions including my home state?

But hey, 10 LET THE VIRUS FLOW 20 GOTO 10, amirite?
