It's being limited only for kids and youth. Simple truth our media is studiously trying to sweep under the rug - almost nobody below age of 30 dies from COVID.

It's being limited only for kids and youth. Simple truth our media is studiously trying to sweep under the rug - almost nobody below age of 30 dies from COVID. Compared to all cause mortality the numbers are laughable and ridiculous. Fewer than 500 kids died _with_ COVID since the beginning of the pandemic in the US. Not _of_, _with_. Under these circumstances, there's simply no justification to give these experimental vaccines to children. And yes, Moderna is still experimental, and it says so in the leaflet they give out when you go for a vaccination. It seems to me that cooler heads are prevailing in at least some European countries, at least until Pfizer/Moderna lobbyists wake up and deliver large suitcases of cash to the decision makers.
- rc2634 5y agoWe know the seasonal flu kills thousands of kids every year and there are safe and effective vaccines for it that have existed for a long time now, yet we never mandated it for kids. But somehow, fewer than 500 deaths with COVID over almost two years means we have to mandate experimental vaccines that haven’t existed for that long for kids. It makes no sense whatsoever.
