Children donot belong to the school system or the government. You all are not responsible for their upbringing and medical decisions. When you mandate medical procedures for minor children, you assume you know better than the parents what’s best for a child and you trample on parental rights. Congress, VDH, school boards, manufacturers, etc, are not able or willing to take any responsibility upon themselves when a child gets injured as a result of a mandate, are they? Other countries have recognized that in the young population the harm from the vaccine is bigger than the harm of going through covid, which by the way,  provides more robust and longer lasting immunity. Do the right thing, and donot mandate!
