Quote:Generally, a vaccination program is justified if its anticipated benefits outweigh its potential risks. Children aged 5-11 years are unlikely to be deemed capable of consenting to vaccination, and decisions related to their vaccination will likely be made by parents or guardians. Given the short- term uncertainties surrounding pediatric vaccination at this time, children and their parents or guardians should be supported and respected in their decisions regarding COVID -19 vaccinations for the child, whatever decisions they make, and should not be stigmatised for accepting, or not accepting, the vaccination offer.

Read it how you want. But hopefully no one tries to force their opinion on parents decisions whether they vaccinate or not vaccinated their younglings.
Why not?
Why should my child be endangered by other parents unwillingness to accept science?
This is nothing new, children who are not vaccinated for many other dangerous diseases are not allowed in schools.
This is more bullshit pandering to the anti-vaxx crazies.
Am I suggesting that parents should be forced? No. Am I suggesting that there should be consequences for their bad choices. Absofreakinglutely.
