Sad COVIDiocy: Grieving Mom Implores Antivaxxers to Get Vaccinated After Losing Her 10-Year Old Daughter to COVID

A 10-year old girl in Virginia, US has died of COVID. Her mother implored all who can receive to a vaccine to do so. In the US, the vaccine is only approved for 12 year-olds or older. 

The ten-year old felt a headache on September 22nd. By 26th, she was coughing so hard she was throwing up. Her mom was on the phone with 911 when she stopped breathing. She survived upon resuscitation, but her condition did not improve. The hospital lost her in the ICU a day later when she stopped breathing again and was unable to resuscitate her. 

The mother went to a school board meeting where COVID deniers continue to claim things like "[COVID] doesn't affect healthy people." 

The grieving mom is calling out the antivaxxers / COVID deniers. COVID comes for EVERYONE, and not all will survive it. If everyone get vaccinated, they can protect those who can't receive the vaccine yet. It's not about the freedom, but the social responsibility

COVIDiocy Denied: Dutch Boy Won Court Battle to Vaccinate Against Father's Wishes

 A 12-year old boy in the Dutch city of Groningen has won a court battle to get the COVID vaccine so he can visit his dying grandma, against his father's wishes. 

His grandma has end-stage lung cancer, and not getting the vaccine would prevent him from spending as much time as he can with grandma. 

The boy's parents are divorced. The mother is pro-vax, while the father is anti-vax, and cited various bogus reasons for not wanting the boy to be vaccinated, like "the vaccine is unproven" or "vaccine affects reproductive health". 

Dutch law states that if the parents do not agree, a judge can decide matters in the best interest of the child. 

And in this case, sanity prevailed, and COVIDiocy is stopped. 

Don't be a COVIDiot. Get #vaxxed.
