Child vaccination and mental health

I watched Premier Doug bullshit his way through his presser yesterday afternoon, explaining yet again why “the science” doesn’t permit the re-opening of Ontario schools, although they’ve re-opened in the rest of Canada and most of the world. Presumably our scientists produce better science. 

If you follow these matters, you will be aware of multiple warnings from paediatricians and mental health professionals about the youth mental health crisis getting more and more urgent the longer lock-downs continue. The scientists Doug listens to know better. 

We gotta get more jabs into the kiddies before it’s safe to re-open!

Here are some relevant stats.

In the course of the pandemic thus far, in almost a year and a half, a total of 11 Canadians under age 20 have died of Covid-19. as of 28 May 2021.

From 2015-2019, before the pandemic, suicides in that age group averaged 240 per year, more than twenty times the number claimed by the virus. 

That’s another way of saying our suicide pandemic was over 2000% more deadly to this cohort than the covid pandemic, and that was BEFORE the lockdowns stoking the current mental health crisis the mental health professionals are warning of.

Attaboy Doug – keep listening to your scientists…
