Ah, let's change the topic to the nasty democrats. But no, I won't let you.
The vaccine is safe and effective. Covid has already killed 600,000 Americans, including 100,000 who can't remotely be called 'elderly'. I gather that you personally don't have any parents or grandparents. Quite a 'relative handful'. The vaccine helps open the economy as well.
So while you squawk away about the Democrats, you yourself are pushing a deadly ideology, one that kills people and hurts the economy.
The covid virus has targeted mostly older people with underlying health conditions. Only an extremely small number by comparison of young people got covid and died from it, and most of those also had underlying health issues. But young people have had bad reactions to the vaccine as well, making the vaccine as much a risk to the health of young people as the virus itself.
With the U.S. Food and Drug Administration authorizing emergency use of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine in children ages 12 to 15 and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention expected to recommend the shots for young teens, vaccinations could begin later this week.

Much like vaccinations for young adults, Pfizer's COVID vaccine could bring some mild, but not concerning, side effects for kids as well, health officials say.
The younger teens received the same vaccine dosage as adults and reported the same side effects, mostly sore arms and flu-like fever, chills or aches that signal a revved-up immune system, particularly after the second dose.
Dr. Candice Robinson, medical director for the Chicago Department of Public Health, noted last week that sore arms and similar common side effects associated with the vaccine were most common for younger populations receiving the vaccine, but said no concerns have so far been raised.
Covid infections in kids are rare. Unpleasant side effects of the vaccine in kids are not rare.
