Okay, so you somewhat understand then.
I don't want to leave my children fatherless, so I have done what I reasonably can to keep that from happening. That is one of the reasons I am vaccinated.

Does everyone understand why I asked the question ? Make sure you read the complete article at the link in the first post . And here is another one to read .
Sweden and Germany: No Deaths In Children Due to Covid
From the article .
"Governments and public health officials have driven this pandemic of fear and propaganda. But parents willing to assess this purely from a benefit versus risk position might ask themselves: ‘If my child has little if any risk, near zero risk of severe sequelae or death, and thus no benefit from the vaccine, yet there could be potential harms and as yet unknown harms from the vaccine (as already reported in adults who have received the vaccines), then why would I subject my child to such a vaccine?"
I think hawkman's point is that it is also known that being vaccinated does not prevent people from transmitting the virus or catching it and children are already far less likely to become seriously ill from the virus, therefore, vaccinating the children has almost zero benefit for the children or the adults.I think I answered the question, but not sure, so will do so again.
Because we have immunocompromised family members, I myself have asthma, their mom has not much of an immune system due to being treated for MS. Children can spread Covid while not really being affected by it. On top of, there have been deaths here in the states of Children from Covid.
For us the pros outweighed the risks and potential risks.

That's correct but where is the study that shows it is more effective than not? All we know is that unvaccinated persons that are immunocompromised are much more likely to become seriously ill. We also know that children are far less likely to become seriously ill.Just because it doesn't keep all people from contracting and spreading the virus, it doesn't mean that it isn't effective at all.
There is a benefit, at least in our minds (pros) to having them vaccinated. They will get the second dose I believe this weekend or next.

Is it fair to assume that you believe if even one child has the potential to become seriously ill, it justifies injecting these unapproved vaccines into every child in the country?
Let me present another scenario. We know that children die in automobile accidents. Do you or would you support a mandate that makes it illegal to allow a child to ride in a car because some may be killed?
If I was a conspiracy theorist or a complete cynic (I am neither) I would say that it was Big Pharma keeping the weak alive to sell more drugs to, and the healthy to be sick to sell more drugs to.Help me understand why we seem to want the healthy possibly sicker. and the weak possibly healthier.
Ok I will call that a moderate answer.If I was a conspiracy theorist or a complete cynic (I am neither) I would say that it was Big Pharma keeping the weak alive to sell more drugs to, and the healthy to be sick to sell more drugs to.
All the while, the flu is still MIA.
