        Tragic. So few people need to die, the vaccine can prevent illness in relatively healthy individuals.

        It will be interesting to know these orphaned children’s thought when they they look back at this time in our history and if they agree with the hill their parent(s)/caregiver(s) died on.

        My general non-qual'd "spidey-sense" nudges me on this ... if ~ 80% of deaths are age 65+, even 55-69% is folks age 75%, hard to imagine that 200K kids are "orphaned" ,.. but more sense if meant loss of either a parent or a grandparent .. the latter likely most common???

        20% of deaths is 141K though That's known COVID, not counting the all cause mortality / "excess death" numbers of ppl who died w/ COVID but never made it to a hospital How many of those have more than 1 kid?

        Every week, thousands of New Zealanders play a lottery in their desperation to come home. Their prize is one of the coveted beds in quarantine hotels. The nation requires everyone — vaccinated against the virus or not — to stay 14 days in hotel isolation.. http://apne.ws/aNuOCz2

        Yeah...and how many US kids lost their caregivers due to receiving the covid-19 vaccines?! 100s? 1000s? 100,000s? (Totally kidding. There may be some rare, confirmed reactions, but #antivaxxers claim dire harm with no evidence. Simple, stark, sad evidence. #VaccinesSaveLives.)
