So what you are saying is the kids have got low vitamin D because of lockdowns and now are experiencing winter illnesses early in the season, I find that logical.

Smoking related illness is a far greater burden on our healthcare systems, by a considerable margin.
True, lots of things are, but we do try to mitigate those, prevent them. How about car accidents, they cause a lot of fuss, thats why cars have ever improving safety ratings and design, and you have to wear a seatbelt.

Maybe, but we don't go so far as to tell people they are no longer able to participate in society if they don't wear their seatbelt.

I'm not asking for anyone to not be able to participate. I think my point is still valid.

That's just it though ... we're reaching a point where that's what it's coming to.
You can't just make a choice. You either have to comply or you risk losing everything: job, which means losing it all. In places like New York, they have passports that amount to papers you must show before you're allowed into places to buy things which amounts to segregation and being kept out of public life entirely on top of risking losing everything. Even if you work at home and aren't fired for not having it, you can't go anywhere and shop so you can't have the things you need.
Again, I don't like it, but amongst everyone I know..I'm in the minority..well, some not liking it per se, but more accepting they think it's needed.

And this is how it starts.
People always used to say it can't happen here, but it can. And this is how it starts.
"I don't like it, but *shrug* ... I'm in the minority."
So many people cheer for it and get so very nasty when you say it's a bad idea. They accuse you of wanting people to die, but they miss where we are actually heading with this if we don't wake up soon.

Just two (2) simple questions:
1.) The 'vaccine', like all vaccines, is to protect YOU from the virus, right?
2. If the 'vaccine' works, and YOU have been vaccinated, then why are YOU worried about the un-vaccinated?
No one will answer these two simple questions. The first question is a "Yes" or "No" answer. The 2nd question can only have one of two answers:
a.) I'm not, or...
b.) The 'vaccine' doesn't work.
That's it!

For this question: viruses mutate. If you have virus X1 and half the population gets vaccinated for it, the other half is contracting X1 leaving room for the virus to mutate into X2, which means that the people vaccinated against X1, can now be infected with X2.
