To VA Dept. Of Health;
I am choosing to join the chorus of concerned parents and citizens of Virginia who are opposed to a Covid-19 mandate for grades K-12.
The Covid-19 vaccine mandate is an unnecessary danger to children in that it can potentially expose them to unknown or adverse side effects while inoculating them against an illness that does not pose a statistically likely health risk. Adults who are at risk of contracting Covid-19 from a minor or elsewhere can choose to get vaccinated. Given the above, it would be wrong for VA to attempt a Covid-19 mandate.
Thank You.
