It follows zero science. This insanity is making organizations more dumb than they were before. US Soccer demanding 13-14 yr old healthy girls be vaccinated for a YNT camp, the NCAA doing it's thing with vaccine mandates. The level of ineptitue in the face of clinical data is astonishing. Check to see how many healthy U18s have died in the UK. Also check out how many U17s have died of pneumonia VS covid over the last year. And before panties get in a wad, stratify the data to sift out comorbids. The resulting data is pretty clear and provides parents the information needed to make a decisions on vaccinating a child under your care.
Vaccine mandate implemenation struggles once you gain access to information. I suppose the issue is that many people are more dumb than they should be ...especially with "100s of thousands of kids in the hospital, many on ventilators" headlines floating out of the mouth of educated people. If that were true, the calculus would change...but it's not, not even close and has never been.
Where did you see that headline?
