The urgency to vaccinate children comes as COVID-19 hospitalizations have started to increase in parts of California. Health officials have long expected that uptick as the weather cools and more people gather indoors.
“Unfortunately, what we were predicting, as people go indoors — that [hospitalization] rates may go up — was actually a reality,” said Dr. Regina Chinsio-Kwong, a deputy health officer in Orange County. “And even though we do have good vaccination rates, we need more people who are not yet vaccinated to get vaccinated.”
The U.K.’s challenges demonstrate how its overall vaccination efforts — while better than California’s — are still not high enough for herd immunity, when sustained coronavirus transmission is interrupted.
In the U.K., 67% of the population is fully vaccinated, according to Our World in Data; California has 62% of its population fully vaccinated. Across the U.S., that rate is 59%, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Children and teenagers have become major sources of coronavirus infection in Los Angeles and Orange counties.

“its overall vaccination efforts — while better than California’s — are still not high enough for herd immunity”
No matter how high the vaccination numbers, it will never be enough for herd immunity, because the efficacy of these vaccines is garbage.
“Wonder where the blame will go if it is indeed proven that the vaccines cause long term damage?”
They’ll instantly pivot back to blaming Trump for rushing the vaccines then.
“Cases!”
Not “deaths.”
Kids get it, mostly asymptomatic. At worst, the sniffles. So what? The vax is much more dangerous to kids.
how much cooler does it get in Orange County, that people start going indoors? wtf?
Good call. In two years of this insanity,
Kids 0-17, “deaths INVOLVING Covid” (not “FROM”)
595.
Out of how many kids? 100,000,000? Lower than drownings or car wrecks.
They are desperate to kill more kidds, for vax $$$!!!
But it was Biden and the Democrat governors (some Republican governors) who >forced< the skeptical folks to get the vaccines and against their will. That includes the media, social media, the medical system, doctors, nurses, employers, the military establishment, big pharma, etc. etc.
These entities are he!! bent on forcing everyone to get the vaccine. They will own it of there are long term side affects.
yup I am pro choice on the vax. take it or don’t IDGAF
Yup. We’re not necessarily for or against a particular vax. This one, like the flu shots and pneumonia shots, we choose not to receive. Others? Have at it.
How do they know it is covid?
Have they improved the tests as to qualify as accurate towards identifying covid from other corona viruses?
Or is it the same tests that identify the common cold, flu etal all as such?
1. How can a "vaccine" whose makers and knowledgeable proponents admit does NOT stop infection nor transmission render any sort of "immunity" to its recipients?
2. How can herd immunity ever be achieved by a population whose only defense is a vaccine that confers no "immunity"?
3. How does injecting children with a "vaccine" that does not stop infection nor transmission protect the so-called "vaccinated" adults from contracting, developing infection and transmitting the target pathogen ... unless the so-called "vaccine" is not a vaccine at all, but is either a miserable failure or has other, formally undisclosed purposes?
We were told that the hospitals needed 15 days to prepare for Covid patients.
The hospitals have now had two years. TWO YEARS.
Open everything now!
I think we have a pretty good idea and pray that we are wrong.
B.S.
The UK should be a “warning” to California? Really? Shouldn’t Florida, the state with the lowest new case rate (I.e., rate per 100,000 population), serve as a model of success. Schools & businesses open WITH NO COVID-19 MANDATES have, IMHO, resulted in massive natural immunity in Florida. My suspicion is that the great majority of Florida schoolchildren have been exposed to the COVID-19 virus and have developed natural immunity (mostly with minimum or no symptoms). Their acquired natural immunity will serve both them and their community now and perhaps years into the future.
The CDC has NOT found a single case of a person who has recovered from COVID-19 with natural immunity EVER being able, in ANY circumstance, to infect another person with the COVID-19 virus. This means that not a single case, not one, in our ENTIRE COUNTRY has been found! This mass of Florida schoolchildren with natural immunity combined with the large mass of older Floridians with natural immunity provide an IMPENETRABLE and widespread BULWARK against spread of this disease in Florida.
Mass vaccination of schoolchildren was not needed in Florida and is not needed in California or other states. Individual schoolchildren can be vaccinated solely at their parents’ choice.
I just wish that the establishment were a little more careful. We are in a mad rush to force people to accept a medical procedure that only marginally works (if you follow the stats) and lasts at the most 4 months.
So that means that you have to get a booster shot every 4 months or so. Okay, so you get the booster shot 3 times a year, times the rest of your life. For a child starting at 10 years old and living to 80, that is 70 x 3 or 210 jabs.
That is a huge number of medical treatments each time with their own risks. With that many medical treatments your chances of getting a bad batch or whatever are greatly increased.
It is clear that officials are “jabbing in the dark” and are desperate. They come across as being a little crazy... in my humble opinion.
