Planning a trip this summer. Called up a cousin who lives in the area, wanted to reconnect, let his kid meet my kids.
Apparently, that’s 100% dependent on whether or not the vax is available for his (very healthy) 4-year old.
This perfectly healthy 4-year old hasn’t played with another child in *two years*.
They told me they taught him to run from people.
He’s an only child.
And always will be.
My cousin and his wife decided that having any more kids in “times like these” was simply impossible.
They haven’t stepped foot in a store, office, restaurant, church, etc. in two years.
Haven’t taken the kid to a playground.
Only allow her mom - who lives alone and, at their demand, is similarly quarantined at all times - to come over to watch the kid a few hours each week.
What on earth has been done to these people?
These are lefties living in a red state, convinced that their state and local government are “anti-science” and can’t be trusted at all.
How many more people like this are out there?
I wonder what measures it will take to get them out of their “bunker”.
A placebo children’s vaccine would probably be morally defensible at this point.
