More healthy kids dying on the roads in one day that in the entire pandemic ! Crazy closure."
Not so fast Richard. As others have indicated, it's the danger of children, who may be less at risk themselves, infecting us adults. I have a 15 yr old son, I am at high risk age and only had one vaccine shot so far. My son has learned online for the past several weeks, and I was hoping for him to get back to school now. But the school, the biggest school in Chiang Mai, gives the option from next week. I will now wait, past his holiday and see the next September stats. and for my second shot, due end October.
