In response to SRP
Vaccines *reduce* transmission of the virus and severity of an infection. They do no *eliminate* transmission, nor does it eliminate symptoms in all cases.
Yes, these are *generally* healthy kids who will *generally* have mild illnesses. But some will get very sick. And many are going to be going home after finals and risk infecting Grandma.
So let's be careful about dismissing this.
P.S. Yes, the common cold may be a coronavirus, but that's like saying that a housecat and a tiger are both felines, so let's let people jump into the tiger exhibit at the zoo because Fluffy is so adorable.
