this is a reasonable conversation to have maybe the rate of death from the vaccine parallels the rate of death from covid in a healthy child now the cdc reports there are 668 deaths over two years so let's say roughly 300 some deaths a year from covid in k everyone under age 18 all children who are those kids we believe many of us believe that they are nearly all in children with a comorbid medical condition now they're still important members of our society we need to do everything we can to protect them but it does change the calculus now for healthy kids when we recognize that the vaccine is not halting transmission so to subject all healthy children to a vaccine when the risk of myocarditis could be as high as one in seven thousand young males and boys then all of a sudden you're talking about a very nuanced decision
