    A new report says 140K children have lost a parent to COVID-19 in the US. The impact has been devestating. All the more reason to take it serious.

    I take it serious, but as I talk to my High school students here is a reoccurring theme they want to know - Why are there so many Government officials exempt from taking the shot? Their parents have no choice (Army) and will get kicked out if they refuse. There are many other questions they have, but can't seem to find an acceptable answer other than It's for the greater good.

    Side note: Anyone see the Project Veritas videos coming out about the vaccine/BigPharma/Government? Very interesting.

    You answer to your students that the reason for the exemption is the https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/separation_of_powers . If you are qualified to discuss, this could be interesting and why it is important.

    Their history/social studies teacher should explain this. It's a great opportunity to help students see the Constitutional structure at work (as frustrating as it might be).

    Perhaps you might explain your understanding of the application of the separation of powers applies to vaccine exemptions.

    "Correction: Oct. 7, 2021
    An earlier version of this article incorrectly described actions taken by regulators in Sweden and Denmark. They have halted use of the Moderna vaccine in children; they have not begun offering single doses. The article also misstated the number of Covid hospitalizations in U.S. children. It is more than 63,000 from August 2020 to October 2021, not 900,000 since the beginning of the pandemic. In addition, the article misstated the timing of an F.D.A. meeting on authorization of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for children. It is later this month, not next week."
    -https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/06/health/covid-vaccine-children-dose.html
    (emphasis added)

    Does the winner of the Victor Cohn Prize for Excellence in Medical Science Reporting publishing a number 14 times the actual statistic bolster or diminish the public's faith in vaccine reporting?

    I’m encouraged that so many have decided to get the vaccine and that cases are declining in the US.

    Hopefully all people can have access and live fruitful and productive lives.

    Oh ye of little faith. Repent now and pay your tithe/subscription, and all will be forgiven - or face the inquisitor’s wrath.

    Dr. Fauci said a virus won’t develop a variant unless you give it an opportunity.

    Publix Pharmacy said they have the Moderna vaccine, so I'll get it there whenever possible.

    It'll likely be Walmart for me.

    No boosters here yet except for those with severely compromised immune systems. We do have a disturbing spread of D.variant, and the associated ass-hattery that is inevitable among some sections of society, as well as the usual increase in crass point scoring among the politicians.

    This is going to sound worse than it is, but it is somewhat good to know that the nonsense is not isolated to the US. As a friend says, it is Darwinisn at work.

    I am reading "I Alone Can Fix It". The first chapter protrays Anthony Fauci and other experts as concerned about what was happening in China. So, can you imagine having information and experience and sounding the alarm while no one wants to listen and then becomeing the wipping boy for speaking out. The book also discusses how Azar was trying to engage with Trump and all Trump wanted to do is blame him for banning flavored e-cigarettes which was costing him votes. It is ironic that while we were going through a national crisis, the concern was loosing an electioin.
