Former CDC boss Rochelle Walensky, queen of past-pandemic-maybe management, reminds us Covid-19 isn't just a market-scorching headline—it’s stubbornly wrecking kids’ health over and over again. Her high-energy PSA screams that severe childhood Covid isn't a myth but a very real menace preventable by a vaccine she swears is safe and effective—because science. Meanwhile, Walensky, whose tenure felt like a Covid-themed soap opera, calls out the virus like a relentless JV bully, refusing to let parents nod off at the vaccine info booth. She’s basically the nurse yelling 'take your meds!' to every skeptical Karen at the PTA. Covid’s sequel? 'Still bad, still avoidable.'
