So my cousin goes to school in Medford WI.
She was exposed to someone there with covid. Not even for that long.
They told her that she had to do a quarantine. At the end of the school day, she went home.
The next day, she came back to school like nothing happened.
They had four police officers come and escort a 13-year-old off the school property. Four! Like she was a bomb about to go off or something.
Please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks this is ridiculous.
Yeah, covid isn't the best. It can make you feel miserable, and people have died.
But they're exaggerating everything way too much.
In my city they're freaking out about 90,000 students K-12 in quarantine.
Out of 52 million.
That's not even close to one percent!
And no one's respecting if you don't want the vaccine.
You can still go to work or school if you don't have the flu vaccine, but perish the thought if you do so with the covid one.
My family and I have weighed our options and decided we'd rather not risk the side effects and won't get the vaccine.
And people act like we have bubonic plague or something.
A few weeks ago we were flipping through the channels on tv and we stopped at the news for a few seconds.
They said, "...the problem is that people are choosing not to get the vaccine."
What, so we're not allowed to have a choice?
I'm not against the vaccine. If you want to get it, if you feel more comfortable having it, fine. But don't force your opinions on us. We have our own minds, our own points of view, and our own opinions. I'm trying really really hard to respect yours, but when you're not respecting mine, you're making it really really hard for me to. -
when you hear the media say brainless things its because they want to cater to brainlet viewers who think that way
4 ? And even cops at that? That's actually insane -
Getting 4 cops is a bit ridiculous but I dont think she should have gone to school.
Also, I know it all sounds extreme with lockdowns and people enforcing vaccines or getting in your face about it, but it was the same for polio and thanks to their efforts, polio was eradicated. People who are eligible to get the vaccine should get it. I think its selfish not to if you have no great reason to refuse it. Others are dying because of covid and while covid isn't like the bubonic plague, it is still affecting so many of us. Some of us are trying so hard to do what needs to be done to get rid of covid too, only to have others seem to stifle any efforts made simply because they dont want to do it and their decisions are causing so many issues, and for society to continuously take a step backwards rather than forward -
That's so f---ing ridiculous. There shouldn’t have even been ONE police officer there. Instead of taking extreme measures, the principal could've just asked your cousin to go home.
I'm not against the COVID vaccine either. But, it just seems like people are waaaay too desperate to make you get the vaccine. I understand that they want COVID to go away, but it's not right for them to force people to take it. Sickness might die down, but I doubt it will fully go away.
My grandmother in South Africa knew a few people who took the COVID vaccine. Exactly three days later, they died. It just seems a bit weird that happened.
