Now that the Covid vaccine is being rolled out for adults across the world, there has also been talk of the possibility of a mandatory vaccine for children. This is due to growing concern about the outbreaks of Covid-19 in babies and children, particularly in Brazil. According to a recent article in NBC News , over two thousand deaths have been reported in children in Brazil. It’s also becoming apparent that children may not be at zero-risk of Covid-19, which has been a common misconception.

During the pandemic, certain safety measures have been put in place all over the world to prevent the spread of Covid-19. These have included social distancing and the encouragement of face coverings and other forms of PPE. Recently Scientists have warned that the current protocols may need updating, however. According to a report by The Lancet , Covid has been shown to be predominantly airborne. This means it’s possible for it to be spread via airborne transmission, and we need to take extra precautions to avoid this.Airborne transmissions occur when an individual inhales aerosols produced when an infected person exhales, speaks, sneezes or coughs. According to The Lancet report, there are particles of the coronavirus disease in the air, or aerosols. These have been given different names throughout the pandemic such as droplets or droplet nuclei, but they are all essentially aerosols that can be inhaled, regardless of size or distance. These can even enter ventilation filters and air ducts.

The international travel ban was one of the most significant safety measures put in place to prevent the spread of Covid-19. Now that the vaccines are being rolled out globally and restrictions are starting to be eased, we can also expect the gradual lifting of the travel ban. There will still be complications, however, as it depends on the country and the destination. Many governments are also encouraging vaccine passports for safer travel.
