In no way surprised he got Covid but I would be surprised if it turns out he really was unvaccinated considering all his health issues. Just a feeling, he wasn't a stupid man. Perhaps undervaccinated though.
Yes... with over 100,000 children currently contracting Covid cases every day in the U.S. coupled with record Covid hospitalizations of children -- you don't support basic measures such as masking in school to protect children. Just think -- 10% of these children will develop Long Covid. But, of course, this does not matter to you. Sadly you only think it matters if the children are dead. Long term disability is not a problem in children according to your thinking. The kids are not alright: Data suggests 10% of children with COVID-19 become "long-haulers" Doctors around the world estimate one in ten children with COVID-19 have long-term side effects https://www.salon.com/2022/01/22/th...s-10-of-children-with-19-become-long-haulers/ 11-year-old Noah Symons feels like "someone started a fire and then threw my hands into it." He has felt this way for three months, he says, and his feet feel like they are on fire too. Symons been trying to go to school and stay active, but any extra effort results in fatigue and painful flare-ups. Meanwhile, over the past five months, 16-year-old Lane Perkins has experienced debilitating headaches, severe fatigue, and difficulty concentrating and retaining information. She lost her spot on the traveling softball team and dropped a chemistry class. For the past 22 months, 14-year-old Anastasia Athienites has had "Covid toes" — a painful blistering rash on her feet. Not long after the rash appeared, she began having heart palpitations, migraines, and cognitive issues. In the past 23 months, 16-year-old Kitty Mcfarland has battled intense fatigue, an increased heart rate, tightness in her chest, the ability to be in an upright position, severe abdominal pain, headaches, and major cognitive and memory struggles. She couldn't talk properly and could barely get out of bed for the first 8 months of her ordeal, and had to crawl from her bedroom to the bathroom. The four kids from Colorado, Tennessee, Massachusetts and the United Kingdom have a few things in common: namely, they all contracted a mild case of COVID-19 weeks before the onset of their symptoms, and have all now accepted a diagnosis of "long COVID." Their situations are a testament to COVID-19's indiscriminate nature — and a rebuke to the myth that COVID-19 is always mild in children. "We are definitely seeing long COVID in children," said Dr. Amanda Morrow, Co-Director of the Kennedy Krieger Institute's Pediatric Post-COVID-19 Clinic in Maryland. "It does exist. And it is impacting day-to-day lives significantly." (More at above url)

Want to avoid Myocarditis in people aged 12 to 20 --- then get vaccinated against Covid. Myocarditis is more common after covid-19 infection than vaccination https://www.elitetrader.com/et/thre...r-covid-19-infection-than-vaccination.360689/
Doctors and scientists urge caution in giving Covid jabs to 'low risk' children More than thirty doctors, scientists and MP's have signed a joint letter to the government's vaccine watchdog urging it to "reassess" the Covid vaccine rollout for healthy 12-15-year-olds following new data showing potentially serious harms of the jab are likely to outweigh any potential benefits. https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/1547050/covid-vaccine-JCVI-omicron-delta-myocarditis
I've had Myocarditis twice in my youth as an athlete (rowing). Diagnosed the first time by a team doctor on the junior national team that included two others on the team being diagnosed with Myocarditis. It was something that team doctors were specifically looking for because they said it was a problem with young rowers. Actually, any young athlete with unusual tall height has a higher risk for Myocarditis than other athletes and higher risk than the general population. Each time I had Myocarditis...I wasn't allowed to compete for about 4 weeks until it cleared up after a slight change in my diet with the help of a team nutritionist. Yet, because of my medical history with Myocarditis and the fact that my kids are also very tall for the age group along with the fact that they are top athletes in their sports...I had our family doctor test them for Myocarditis prior to vaccination, again after their 1st dose, again after their 2nd dose (a month later)... No Myocarditis and no adverse affect from their Covid vaccination. ---------- Myocarditis Incidence The incidence of myocarditis is approximately 1.5 million cases worldwide per year. 150 cases per 100,000 in the United States from March 2020 – January 2021 that resulted in hospitalization. Myocarditis (Hospitalization) January 2019 to May 2021 and its 16x more likely to occur in patients with Covid-19 in comparison to patients without Covid. Incidence is usually estimated between 10 to 20 cases per 100,000 persons. The overall incidence is unknown and probably underdiagnosed. In the United States, the frequency of myocarditis is difficult to ascertain as many cases are subclinical. In community-based populations, the prevalence and outcomes of myocarditis are unknown as epidemiologic studies suggest that the majority of Coxsackie B virus infections, an important cause of myocarditis are subclinical, thus following a benign course. According to some estimates, 1% to 5% of all patients with acute viral infections may involve the myocardium. The majority of patients are young and healthy. Individuals who are susceptible include children, pregnant women, and those who are immunocompromised. There are approximately 75 deaths per year in athletes between 13-‐25 years. 89% occur in males, 64% occur in females. Most deaths occur during or immediately after exercise, with causes including Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: 36%, Coronary anomalies: 17%, Myocarditis: 6%, Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia: 4%, Long QT Syndrome: 4% (7). Myocarditis is the reason for sudden cardiac death in 5-‐22% of athletes < 35 years of age. For prevention of myocarditis and sudden cardiac death it is recommended to stop elite sport for 4 weeks after an unspecific infection. Whether moderate sport can be started earlier is unclear. When myocarditis is verified, athletes have to withdraw from sport for at least 6 months (8). https://www.dicardiology.com/article/overview-myocarditis-cases-caused-covid-19-vaccine ---------- wrbtrader
