Even as the justification for vaccine mandates collapses, Covid tyrants double down on efforts to force vaccines onto children:

A bill was introduced Thursday to the California Senate that would allow children 12 and older to be vaccinated for diseases like COVID-19 without a parent’s approval.

Pressuring children into getting vaxxed is child’s play for the leftists who run schools, so long as parents can be kept out of the picture.

One way to sideline parents is through a consent process listed as a common approach by the World Health Organization in a document entitled, “Considerations Regarding Consent in Vaccinating Children and Adolescents Between 6 and 17 Years Old”:

An implied consent process by which parents are informed of imminent vaccination through social mobilization and communication, sometimes including letters directly addressed to the parents. Subsequently, the physical presence of the child or adolescent, with or without an accompanying parent at the vaccination session, is considered to imply consent. This practice is based on the opt-out principle and parents who do not consent to vaccination are expected implicitly to take steps to ensure that their child or adolescent does not participate in the vaccination session.

Not keeping your kid out of school when the needles come out is interpreted as consent.

Covid is rarely a serious illness in children. The CDC admits that the effectiveness of vaccines has declined with Omicron. The long-term effects of the vaccines are unknown.

Why would anyone impose the vaccine on children against their parents’ wishes? If the behavior of leftists is otherwise incomprehensible, coercion as an end in itself tends to be a reliable explanation.
