Just a few hours ago, an FDA panel issued emergency youth authorization for the Pfizer vaccine,
this one aimed at children ages 5 to 11. Mandates for children of those ages will soon follow,
no question. So what does the science say about this?
Well, it turns out that children of those ages are more likely to die of the annual
flu than they are from COVID. Of the 73 million children in this country, fewer than 700 have
died of COVID. CDC data show that among the relevant age set, children 5 to 11,
there have been nearly 2 million COVID cases, but only 138 deaths total.
From March through October of last year,
at the height of the pandemic,
a child had a one in a million chance of dying from COVID.
Right now, by contrast,
kids are 10 times more likely to die of suicide.
That's the actual pandemic raging among young people.
Meanwhile, there are reasons to think that mandating vaccines for kids could be dangerous
to them.
Pfizer still has not conducted meaningful clinical trials on young people.
According to Pfizer, quote, long-term safety of COVID-19 vaccine in participants five to
12 years of age will be studied in five post-authorization safety studies.
In other words, improve our drug, make it mandatory for small children, and then we
will tell you whether or not it's safe.
According to the substack Technofog, which is run by a brilliant attorney called Travis
Miller, Pfizer previously announced that vaccine side effects for small children are quote
generally comparable to those observed in participants 16 to 25 years of age.
So what does that mean exactly?
Well it means the potential for many new cases of myocarditis among small kids in order to
protect an age group that is not at risk in the first place from COVID.
Once again, this is lunacy on the merits, according to the science, and people around
the country are starting to figure that out.
