Healthy kids don't need vaccine.

I wonder if this ever got reversed. I doubt it.

CDC adds Covid-19 shots to list of routine vaccines for kids (and adults: no healthy person in Israel under 50 died from Covid. Should only be some adults... or just not a routine shot at all).

 

Long after the rest of us have moved on from covid, people desperate to justify their hysteria over vaccines can't let go.

 

The two mRNA covid vaccines used here provide protection against more serious infections. Instead of arguing against the vaccines because of side effects, you're promoting the obvious lie they don't work.

 

Why did you quote me?

 

I think he just needed someone to use, to say something, even if it wasn't relative to what you said.

 

Because your comment was what @Moolk and I were discussing.

 

No, you weren’t

 

The topic, my good fellow, is about the necessity, not the effectiveness, of vaccines for children. You're not on topic.

 

It’s not a lie. They didn’t work. Still aren’t.

 

I can understand people in a panic when the risks were unknown, but here we are with years of data. Knowing what we know, how can you justify giving this product to a healthy child?

 

Yes, I was. @Moolk was commenting on my comment about your post.

 

Based on what we knew in 2021, yes. On what we know now and the way the virus has changed, no.

 

Yes, you're repeating a falsehood. There is solid, statistical evidence the vaccines protect against symptomatic infection for a short time and provide longer protection against severe disease. I've personally presented the evidence on this forum.

I think the fair question is whether or not the side-effects are worth the protection. Older people seem to benefit sufficiently while younger people may not.

 

There isn’t any evidence that being a young healthy person benefits at alll.

 

Please stop repeatedly mentioning me with the notification.

 

They do benefit, even with Omicron, but the benefit may be outweighed by the risk.

 

The evidence they benefit is extremely unreliable

 

In 2021, the risk of hospitalization for children was close to zero. I would never allow my children to be lab rats for big pharma.

 

It's obvious and compelling. Lives have been saved.

 

No one (that I know of) is disputing that. The question, when it comes to children, is rather if it's necessary for the vast majority of children. Perhaps you have data that supports great number of children's lives have been saved from the morbidity of covid. Share it when you find the data. I couldn't find support for the claim.

 

The good and bad include health concerns beyond dying. I think we should consider the child's overall wellbeing. Is the shot likely to help or hurt?

 

It's not an or question. It could do either. It depends on the individual health condition of the child. One having preexisting conditions might benefit from vaccines, while those that are healthy might be at risk from it.

 

That's why is used "likely" in my comment and suggested a look at the pros and cons of the vaccines which should focus on many of the issues you raised.

 

A respirator is very different from a cloth mask. Which democrats incorrectly told the world protected them.

 

Dems never moved on. They still wear ineffective cloth masks and demand you do the same.
