For me a clear separation is spreading false information about vaccine effectiveness and safety. I could not see how any US approve COVID-19 vaccine for 16-17

  In order to determine that you have to determine 1: How much harm the vaccine is causing 16-17 yo 2: How much harm the virus is causing 16-17 yo Regarding 1, we know that mRNA vaccines can cause heart inflammation. As for, how much for 16-17 yo, I don't know if that has been tested. Regarding 2, I am unaware of a test that has been preformed on 16-17 yo. But the test on under 11 yo was unsuccessful, because even those getting the placebo did not develop serious symptoms of the virus. If you believe that the burden of proof should be on whoever wants someone to take the vaccine, then they would have to preform a trial that determines 1 and 2. Until that is done, the philosophical default is not to claim that boosters should be given to 17-18 yo.

    This has been already determined and result is - virus causes more arm than vaccination. As for boosters - US is not Israel that could vaccinate all their 16-17 in one week if they see that virus has started to cause a lot harm. It would be great success when US could vaccinate half of them in few months. We know already well how the virus is acting on under 11 olds and we do not need statistics to tell us that. If the vaccine can prevent symptomatic illness, it can also prevent serious illness. Simple as that.
