Another aspect to the question "Is an unvaccinated child a big risk to the public good? "
"
Only 43 percent of public school parents and guardians said they wanted their children in a classroom full time this year after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on July 27 updated its health guidance to recognize the threat of the delta variant.
That was down from 58 percent of parents and guardians who said they wanted in-person instruction before July 27, according to a survey funded by the CDC through the Atlanta-based nonprofit CDC Foundation. It polled 1,448 public school parents and guardians July 23-Aug. 8."
Obviously someone who doesn't care if wave after covid wave shuts down hundreds down children's hospitals won't care about schools, but for the rest of us, there's never going to be a great way to ensure that school remote learning, isolation and quarantining stops until herd immunity in children is reached.
