No vaccination requirement!
 

It is clear that vaccination does not stop transmission. The numbers of children 19 and under who have been hospitalized or worse are very small and most had underlying problems (go to VA dept of health, demographics, age 19 and under). Last time I checked there were 11 deaths in all of Covid, ages 19 and under. The risk of myocardial incident with vaccine is real and more dangerous to these children than covid. The vaccine is waning in efficacy. It is not worth risking their future unknown health risks with vaccine, when their severe covid risk is low, and the vaccine does not stop the virus. The benefits do not outweigh the risks. Please look at schools like Duke or countries like Israel, who have  very high vaccination rates, still have cases and hospitalizations.
