If the current trends are to continue, the world will continue to push for a shift to normalcy, even amidst the lockdowns that are taking place.

These are times of great panic and frustration for many people, and amongst the frustrated are a group of parents who are finding it difficult to tackle the urgency of getting their children vaccinated during this pandemic. The confusion seems to have initially begun when it was announced by family groups that the laws in place currently, state that the final choice of whether to take a vaccine or not […]
