There is no reason to have Covid vaccine mandates for children- or adults.  The mRNA vaccines do not prevent someone from getting Covid or transmitting to others.  Profits of vaccine manufacturers seem to have clouded a rational, scientifically-valid asssessment of the efficacy of these vaccines.  The FDA was set up to protect the public from "snake oil" salesmen and to ensure that our medicines are both safe and effective.  A Bayer executive admitted at a conference in Germany that if people had been offered a "gene therapy" shot instead of being told the mRNA shots were NOT traditional vaccines, that 95% would have refused.  It seems the public was massively deceived about the risks of these vaccines- which is why there's been a suggestion in some quarters that we have an "amnesty" about the Covid crisis and how it was mishandled.  We need transparency and full accountability.  Covid mainly impacted the elderly with multiple co-morbidities-- yet wild fear-mongering occurred, which in hindsight now seems to have only benefited the companies selling the vaccines who received immunity from government authorities.  This all needs a full and honest reassessment given the "excess deaths" from Covid vaccines now being reported, along with concerns about damage to the immune system.
