No vaccine mandate
 

Statistical data shows that children are at very low risk of death or hospitalization from COVID-19. Therefore, it makes little sense to introduce an unknown level of risk through an experimental vaccine to mitigate a minimum risk of hospitalization or death from COVID-19 on children. Please know that whether you are vaccinated or not You can still transmit  COVID-19 to others, the only benefit of the vaccine is to reduce your personal  probability of hospitalization or death, which as stated, is not a high risk for children. It is a personal choice whether you estimate that your risk is high enough to require mitigation through vaccination, mask wearing and social distancing, all of which would be required to mitigate 100% of the risk of contracting COVID-19. It is a personal choice and it is unethical and unconstitutional to force others to mitigate your personal risk.
