I just don't get it...

So I just made a 2 day trip to Seattle. The only reason I flew down (commercial airline) was for the doctor to check out my right eye. An accident caused me to loose sight in the eye.

I was amazed at the number of parents traveling with children. Guessing they were returning home from visiting grandma for Thanksgiving. Kids of all ages.

With the current dilemma of C19 why would you subject your toddler/child to the chance of getting the virus? I just think it's irresponsible. What is going thru these parents heads?

Personally I would have told grandma lets give it another 6 months. Maybe we can safely travel then.
 
As a point of comparison for COVID-19 risks.

If you are under the age of 65 AND catch COVID-19, your chances of dying from it are about equal to that of driving a car to/from work 17 miles each work day for a year.

Above 65, the risk starts to rise significantly.
