This will mean less missed school because of quarantine, she said, fewer missed sports practices and games, a return to birthday parties, sleepovers and, most importantly, our kids will have a much lower risk of getting ill from this terrible virus.
Children, Khaldun said, aren t immune to COVID-19. We have seen many outbreaks among schools and school sports, and over 150 children in Michigan have gotten a very serious inflammatory syndrome from COVID-19 called MIS-C (multisystem inflammatory syndrome children). And unfortunately, many of these children have ended up in the intensive care unit, and some have even lost their lives.
“So I m asking all parents today to take this virus seriously and take your child to get vaccinated. Think about it: not having to wear a mask, not needing to quarantine if exposed to the virus. This is really a big deal.
