  • Parents-FYI…you can have a religious exemption on file (in writing) with your school if you choose not to vaccinate.

  • Parents-FYI…you can also choose to ignore anti-vax mythologies and get your child vaccinated for both increased protection of your child and society in general.

    I'd bet everything I have that Koios typed that up wearing at least 2 masks... Maybe 3.

  • Hopefully you don’t have much, because, as usual, you are not correct.

  • medical is a personal choice. What am I told anyway, even when a life is at risk. With that in mind, I know the above is based around COVID. I chose to be vaccinated. If they are great in protection, why do I care about those who choose a different path. I didn't.

    In that same light, it is not arguable to say the Covid vaccine wasn't a positive impact. I have spoken to too many professional medical people who I trust to think otherwise.

    What is also not arguable is the long term effects. We have no idea. For those who say there will be no issues, they are as unsound in that concept as those who say the vaccines were not positive in the moment.
