        I hear you! Same thing here, and with school fully opened, no ventilation, no distancing. Only masks. Counting the days till they open vaccination for 12-15 yos.

        What's the reasoning or rush to get kids vaccinated if there's low to no risk? Esp the younger ones. Since all adults who want vaccine are soon to have it.

        I’m pretty sure they haven’t even submitted this data to the fda officially yet...then a committee reviews it, then the committee makes a recommendation...it’s approval is going to take a bit still. :( They keep saying it should be approved “by next school year”.
