Outside of birth defects.

For the record my family and I wear masks when asked so I'm not a die hard on this issue. But the standard of "We should do ANYTHING" to protect children is interesting.

Because we do not enforce pool fence laws. We don't even try. Most states have made it illegal to construct a pool without a fence and yet it is not enforced in slightest. 11 kids die each day. So if the standard is we should take any measure to protect kids, why don't we have pool inspectors that go door to door and inspect your backyard pool fence?

I'm not sure how I feel about mandatory pool inspections to be honest.
