Ouders werd voorgespiegeld dat covid kinderen zou sparen. Toen werd het via scholen over kinderen gejaagd die het mee naar huis namen. “We want them infected.” Kind vaccineren? In NL onmogelijk of ontmoedigd. Hoeveel kinderen overleden? Hoeveel ziekenhuisopnames? Hoeveel met #LongCovid? Ondertellingen en rookgordijnen.
