HHS to scrap covid recommendations for children, pregnant women as Hong Kong pushes pediatric covid jabs

[Anonymous]

While our government will make it more difficult (or impossible?) for a large segment of society to get covid vaccinations, Hong Kong hospitals are advising parents to vaccinate their kids as the hospitals wards are filled with unvaccinated pediatric covid patients. https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/health-environment/article/3310747/hong-kong-children-urged-get-covid-jabs-whole-paediatric-ward-full
Insurance won't pay, that appears clear. But will families still be able to get vaccinations at pharmacies? Will kids be able to get the vaccine at all? https://www.statnews.com/2025/05/15/covid-vaccine-recommendations-rfk-jr-reportedly-reversing-for-children-pregnant-women/

Hong Kong is first world while we are sliding backward to the age of witchcraft and potions.

I lived through covid in Hong Kong.

My kids had to take daily rapid tests and temp checks to attend school, for years. (This ended in 2023!)

Masks were required by law, even on the beach, even walking alone on a trail, and this was actually enforced by fines.

Contact tracing was enforced universally via a contract tracing app that you needed to use to enter almost any public space, to include athletic fields and public restrooms.

Any large building had someone with a thermal camera monitoring everyone entering.

There were multi-week quarantines for people entering.(the real kind, where you are put in a hotel room with a camera/alarm watching the door 24x7 and repeatedly given PCR tests.)

Plexiglass was everywhere.

If a dog/cat tested positive it was euthanised.

Hand sanitizer dispensers were ubiquitous.

People worn rubber gloves to avoid touching anything.

It was hellish

And you know what? Covid absolutely tore through here in the end.

Why are you doing Covid hysteria 5 years later?

Just stop. If you trust The Science™️ you know that the vaccine neither stops transmission nor infection. And children have the least amount of morbidity from the virus.

At this point, the Covid vaccine is absurd. My sibling and parents have all gotten each and every Covid vaccine - and they've all gotten Covid, at least twice a year. What is the point?

I took the initial vaccines when they first came out, but no more. Way too many side effects and it doesn't prevent anyone from getting Covid.

Before it was
CDC 'We aren't mandating anything- it's up to the schools.'

Schools 'We are just following CDC recommendation.'

So now adults and children who already have health conditions are going to have to pay $$$ out of pocket for these vaccines, if they are even available.

So much for transparency in the Novavax FDA approval restricted to high-risk patients: "We did not refer your application to the Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee because our review of information submitted in your BLA, including the clinical study design and trial results, did not raise concerns or controversial issues that would have benefited from an advisory committee discussion" I thought in the confirmation hearings, Kenney had promised to not take away vaccinations from people...: "In the weeks leading up to the hearings, Kennedy has sought to distance himself from those statements and has said he will not take vaccines away from anyone." https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/public-health/kennedy-faces-tough-questioning-vaccine-views-hhs-confirmation-hearing
Lies lies and more lies. But this is not just on Kennedy. This is on the Senate who knew exactly what was coming and confirmed him anyway.

Exactly.

Couldn't get Bird Flu or Measles to stick, so I guess we need to see if people can panic about Covid again? Got to have something to be afraid of

It would have worked if you had only double masked.

Doesn't stop it, but does significantly reduce it.

It killed over a million Americans and you're acting like it didn't even happen. FFS

Nobody is explaining why taking a vaccine from those that wanted to protect themselves or loved ones away when they had promised not to is a good idea. The vaccine hasn't been mandated anywhere in a long time, what is it harming you if the relative of a cancer patient or a new baby decides to get one to protect them (which they would no longer be allowed to)?
