Bangkok’s schools may reopen in November, pending the speed of the vaccination rollout in schools, said Bangkok Governor Aswin Kwanmuang today (Tuesday), while students with underlying diseases will be the first to get inoculated, mainly with Pfizer vaccine.

 

The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) provided free vaccinations today to 1,500 students, aged between 12-18, who are afflicted with any of the seven underlying conditions and who have passed the screening conducted by Vajira Hospital.

 

The Pfizer vaccine being used was part of the 1.5 million doses donated by the United States and distributed by the Disease Control Department to the BMA.  Of the 1,500 youngsters, 700 are to receive their first jab and the rest, who were given their first shot on August 27th, will receive their second.

700 students their first shot and 800 were already vaccinated since 27th August????? Amazing Thailand. probably he kids of rich and wealthy

I hear what you say but would suggest that the entire family, and staff, of the rich and wealthy who want to be vaccinated already have been; privately.

 

I would guess that Type 1 diabetes and obesity probably counts for a lot of those in the current group.

Tutorial and private schools look like they've been green-lighted to open from mid-October, according to MOE sources!

Open the darn schools already. They're already a nation lacking in education to begin with. Holding all the kids back a yea from development and proper learning isn't going to help the youth develop into the future of the nation. We all know the online learning is a joke

Why are we vaccinating children against COVID-19?

Are health authorities and parents studying the available published evidence regarding Covid vaccines for children?

The following are précis'd extracts (not literal quotes) from the introduction to this 21-page report in 'Toxicology Reports' published by Elsevier:

https://reader.elsevier.com/reader/sd/pii/S221475002100161X
 
 The bulk of the official COVID-19-attributed deaths per capita occur in the elderly with high co-morbidities, and the COVID-19 attributed deaths per capita are negligible in children.

 The bulk of the normalized post-inoculation deaths also occur in the elderly with high co-morbidities  ...

 while the normalized post-inoculation deaths are small - but not negligible - in children.

 A cost-benefit analysis showed that there are five times the number of deaths attributable to each inoculation vs those attributable to COVID-19 in the most vulnerable 65+ demographic.

 The risk of death from COVID-19 decreases drastically as age decreases, and the longer-term effects of the inoculations on lower age groups will increase their risk-benefit ratio, perhaps substantially.

 In the USA, nearly 600,000 deaths have been officially attributed to COVID-19.

 "VAERS received 4,863 reports of death (0.0017 %) among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine.” -- The Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System.  VAERS is a passive surveillance system managed jointly by the CDC and FDA. Historically, VAERS has been shown to report about 1% of actual vaccine/inoculation adverse events.

 We use the term ‘inoculated’ rather than vaccinated, because the injected material in the present COVID-19 inoculations prevents neither viral infection nor transmission. Since its main function in practice appears to be symptom suppression, it is operationally a “treatment”.

 After testing began, the main diagnostic used was the RT-PCR test. This test was done at very high amplification cycles, ranging up to 45. In this range, very high numbers of false positives are possible.

 Most deaths attributed to COVID-19 were elderly with high co-morbidities. Attribution of death to one of many possible co-morbidities is highly arbitrary and can be viewed as a political decision more than a  medical decision.

 The CDC recently admitted that about 94% of the deaths attributed to COVID-19 could just as easily have been attributed to one of the co-morbidities. Thus, the actual number of COVID-19-based deaths in the USA may have been on the order of 35,000 or less, characteristic of a mild flu season.

 Even the 35,000 deaths may be an overestimate ... If pre-clinical conditions had been taken into account and coupled with the false positives as well, the CDC estimate of 94% mis-diagnosis would be substantially higher.

From Appendix D
COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS OF COVID-19 INOCULATION

 People in the 65+ demographic are five times as likely to die from the inoculation as from COVID-19 !

 The deaths from the inoculations shown in VAERS are short-term only (~six months for those inoculated initially); and for children extremely short-term (~one month).

 Intermediate and long-term deaths remain to be identified, and are possible from ADE, auto-immune effects, further clotting and vascular diseases, etc., that take time to develop.

 Thus, the long-term cost-benefit ratio under the best-case scenario could well be on the order of 10/1, 20/1, or more for all the demographics, increasing with decreasing age, and an order-of-magnitude higher under real-world scenarios!

 In summary, the value of these COVID-19 inoculations is not obvious from a cost-benefit perspective for the most vulnerable age demographic -- and is not obvious from any perspective for the least vulnerable age demographic [i.e. children].

Hear, hear.  When the history of this global pandemic is written, the decision to ruin a whole generation's education and children's socialisation skills will be viewed very critically.
