    Manatee Bay in Weston Florida. I saved you a click.

    It’s a very affluent neighborhood in a very affluent city. Homes start at $1 Million in the entire city. Feel bad for the kids.

      Great. They just had a huge soccer tournament there this past weekend, with kids (and parents) travelling from all of Florida and out of State. This is going to be 👍

        If your child is vaccinated then they are 97% protected.

        You’re probably still more statistically likely to get bit by an alligator, or stabbed by a homeless man.

          Thats not how statistic work.

          At 97%, a thousand children in attendance were exposed that would translate to 30 vaccinated children being infected.

          If 30 children at the tournament were stabbed by the homeless, it would be international news and be labeled a massacre.

          I mean, we are talking about Florida, so I still don’t like them odds
