You know what's really a "major inconvenience"? Getting intubated and not being able to breathe well for the rest of your life, assuming you survive at all.

You know what's really a "major inconvenience" for kids? Dying, or transmitting covid to their parents, killing them, and then growing up with no parents.

Most kids will not die from COVID-19, and most healthy adults won't be intubated.

Intubation is rare. Less than 5% of hospitalized COVID-19 patients are currently being put on mechanical ventilation.

You know what's really a "major inconvenience"? Getting in a car and getting hit by a trailer truck and getting paralyzed for life. Lets all stay in a closet at home forever...
