California NHL Team Requires 3-Year-Olds to Get Vaccinated or Tested – Opinion

In California, they’re trying to protect 3-year-olds.

Or, alternately, they’re trying to protect themselves from 3-year-olds.

So anyone who is going to a San Jose Sharks hockey games will have the comfort of knowing that all toddlers present were either negative tested or inoculated.

NHL.com posted the Sharks’ COVID-19 revision on December 6.

Home games are played at the SAP Center (formerly the San Jose Arena).

“In accordance with an updated health and safety directive mandated by the State of California affecting ‘mega-events’ which includes concerts, sporting events, and other shows,” the entry began, “Sharks Sports & Entertainment (SSE) has announced updates to its guest attendance policy for SAP Center at San Jose.”

Babies, get vaxxed:

All guests aged 3-11 years old who come to SAP Center San Jose have to be fully vaccinated within 72 hours. … These requirements will remain in place until state and local health and safety guidance is revised.

“The updated mandate, which was recently announced by the State of California, affects events being held at statewide indoor venues with attendance levels of 1,000 guests or more,” it said.

In August, a “mega event” requirement was issued for those 12 and over, but the new rule ropes in much younger kiddos.

Everyone will, naturally, be mask-clad.

SAP Center’s first event to be impacted by the new needling policy: a December 9th match between the Sharks and the Minnesota Wild.

Is it possible to subject your 3-year old to the COVID test to see if they can skate or pop sticks with projectiles?

Since it’s California, the answer is likely yes.

We’re living in interesting times — the best I can tell, some institutions are uninterested in nuanced coronavirus conversation.

For instance, as reported by the CDC, in December 2020 — before any vaccination had been offered — the survival rates of the virus were as follows:

0-19 years: 99.99997
20-49 years: 99.9998
50-69 years: 99.995
70+ years: 99.946

Those numbers didn’t exactly sit at the forefront of corporate recognition.

On the West Coast, evidently, the difference between age groups isn’t playing a huge part in governmental guidelines.

Natural immunity is also possible. Don’t hold your breath.

If I’m correct in my perception, the virus has often been presented as an absolute angel of death which necessitates the immediate vaccination of all humans as soon as such is available.

According to the CDC vaccines do not stop the spread or contraction of COVID-19.

It is possible that this fact is not widely known.

It was California that became the first state in America to require schoolchildren to be vaccinated.

On Monday, SF Gate asked why the rest of the country hadn’t followed suit:

Is it possible that the next national inquiry will be about rugrats

If the virus is almost always fatal, and affects everyone at the same time, it should.

California’s hockey teams will be hosting crowds who can contract COVID and spread it.

But they’ll all be vaxxed just the same.

As for the Sharks’ stipulation that the “requirements will remain in place until state and local health and safety guidance is revised,” when might that be?

We lack an agreed stopping point at the national level.

We should have been independent already:

I’d guess there are some in leadership who don’t want the pandemic to end. Elementary citizens may feel the same.

But hopefully, an end will come — before all those vaccinated 3-year-olds are too old to enjoy normal lives.

You can also play regular hockey.
