3. The news media only wants to report bad vaccine reactions, they don't report this all that often

Breakthrough infections make the big news. Nobody pays attention after the lede sentence. We need to be showing pictures of these children on ventilators and quit being so damn squeamish about seeing the effects of our actions.They should repeat often, dammit if you get sick and die now it’s your fault

If it were its own state it would be the 10th or 11th biggest population in the country. Whatever is happening there isn't a fluke caused by small sample size.

Four hospitals and 19 health centers.

There are 100 other facilities in the county. We might be talking about as few as a hundred people.

could be best studied? All kids? Certainly no one has received early distributed shot(s) that took Delta variant into consideration though those vaccines have been "mostly" successful in catching a weaker case - At the time, scientists weren't sure how long best immunity or prevention of poorer outcomes would last in vivo...SMH...cuz I received Pfizer back as soon as my age group opened with the full knowledge that experimental vaccine wasn't 100%...as I believe are most other vaccines for other pathogens - sort of a "never say never," but best science says IT IS certainly best to receive!

Guess there's more than VSED to accelerate death on account of illness and/or meeting one's maker legally. I think TPTB have co-opted those self-sabatoging suicide laws too, but...another time. I really feel for hospital docs/nurses that gotta watch it happen all over again ...not a shred of mercy for those that can vaccinate, deny all evidence, and won't even for the kids' sake...SMH!
