Fear is powerful. Fear is causing lawmakers to consider mandating a vaccine for children, the long term effects of which are unknown. Please consider that a mandate on a vaccine the long term effects of which are unknown is a complete invasion of freedom. Lawmakers should not have the right to determine what is right for a child’s body. The child should when he or she reaches an appropriate age. The vast majority of children overcome Covid. The means of a mandate simply do not justify the ends. Instead of being guided by the fear of Covid be guided by the fear of the unknown. The long term effects are unknown. That should be the fear factor considered and recognized by lawmakers. Remember, my body my choice, should apply in all circumstances not just the ones that result in votes. My body my choice. My child’s body, my child’s choice.
