In support of mandate
 

I support the state creating rules for K12 vaccination around Covid-19 the same way it created rules for other innoculations for children prior to enrolling in school (MMR, etc). Mandating Covid-19 vaccinations for school personnel and children would not only cover a large piece of Virginia's population, but help our society as a whole in terms of spread coming in to schools and coming out of schools. My child is not old enough for K12 at this time, at yet is still impacted by the behavior of K12 because his classmates have siblings in K12 and his teachers have children in K12. We are all connected and K12 schools are a huge hub in our connection to each other. The entire state will benefit from mandating Covid-19 vaccinations for K12 staff and students. Thank you
