From the nature.com link that you posted:
“The low rate of severe acute disease is important news, but this does not have to mean that COVID does not matter to children,” says paediatrician Danilo Buonsenso at the Gemelli University Hospital in Rome. “Please, let’s keep attention — as much as is feasible — on immunization.”
- rpmisms 5y agoHow about 1 out of 52 children in the 5-11 test group experiencing heart inflammation as a result of the vaccine? That sounds a hell of a lot more dangerous than covid for kids. > "according to data reviewed by the CDC's advisory panel on vaccines, as of Oct. 10, almost 2 million 5- to 11-year-olds have gotten ill from COVID-19, and 94 have died." That's a laughably low death rate. Driving your child to school is more dangerous for them than Covid.
- jayknight 5y agoCan you provide a citation for that "1 out of 52" statistic? I'm seeing >In Pfizer's clinical trial for 5- to 11-year-olds, there were no cases of myocarditis, although the company acknowledged that the trials were not big enough to pick up such rare events. https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2021/11/03/1051299050/covid-vaccine-kids-5-11 https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2021/11/03/1051299...
