[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I honestly don't think the under 12 vaccine will make much of a difference.  Many parents will decline because the risk of the vaccine is greater than the risk of the virus to most kids.  That's because the risk of the virus to kids is SO FREAKING LOW.

We have to stop thinking of the under 12 vaccine as some sort of game changer.  [/quote]

If the risk of the vaccine is greater than the risk of the disease… then FDA won’t give EUA for kids.

This is all well and good, but then quarantine rules/restrictions have to align with the "risk of the disease" being low for kids and treat it like a rhinovirus or influenza or any other communicable disease.[/quote]

Yes!  The people who think vaccine availability should be delayed need to chat with the DC officials who require kids to quarantine after driving out of the DMV to see Grandma.[/quote]

Yes, we should definitely expedite vaccine approval country-wide and vaccinate 50 million children potentially unnecessarily because the DC government is bat-sh$%t insane and had these dumb travel restrictions.

[b]Listen, I am the BIGGEST fan of vaccination there is BUT NOT IF THE RISK OF THE VACCINE IS GREATER THAN THE RISK OF COVID!!!  You can't vaccinate 50 million kids to harm 500 by the vaccine if only 50 of them would be harmed by Covid!![/b]

How do people not understand this???  Clearly the DC government does not understand this but they are a bunch of morons.  I would expect more of those of you reading on here.

[b]Previous poster again.

MAYBE the FDA will find that there IS VALUE in vaccinating all those kids.  But they just a minute to figure this out.  They have decided that they have to track the study participants for more than a month and have asked for 4-6 months.

Give it a hot minute.  This is how scientific research and public health policy works.  [/b][/quote]
