I don't understand this whole push to vaccinate kids.

In the beginning all the panic was about the "most vulnerable" in the population, while the young ones apparently could deal with it fine enough.

A year and a half later and we are rushing to vaccinate the youngest ones, even tho it doesn't prevent them from spreading and they have great chances to get trough the disease without the vaccine already.

The ultimate goal here seems to be to just get everybody vaccinated, possibly even yearly.



In the beginning it was about the most vulnerable because those were the people dying and we didn't have enough vaccines.

Now we have enough for everyone and it turns out kids are spreading it to each other. It's true the vaccine doesn't totally stop someone from spreading the vaccine, but it does help.
