Please no covid vaccine mandate. It needs to be parent/family choice. There hasn’t been enough data to determine the long term effects on growing children/teens. It should follow the same guidelines as the flu shot and should be optional. Children are at an extremely low risk. Please look at factual data from school transmitted covid cases in the area, it’s really low. We need more time to research long term effects not only on adults but more importantly on kids bodies who are already going through a lot of change.  I also worry about losing good quality teachers if there’s a mandate put on them.
