Vaccination & epidemic

[Lamplighter]

Using death to assess risks is an extremely stringent end point.
Even using the signs and symptoms of the disease is quite narrow,
and fails to describe the entire situation of many families.
Some families have stay-at-home mothers or fathers... but not all.

For example, a working mother may be faced with difficult issues of child care
if/when the child becomes ill with an otherwise preventable disease.

If that working mother is also a single working mother,
the situation probably even more difficult.

If that single working mother is also low income, a sick child can lead
to significant loss of income... and possibly even the loss of her job.

To think about a single, working, man taking time off from his job
to care for his sick child is yet another POV ... for me that's almost too weird !
