RFK Jr. Wants CDC to Stop Recommending COVID Shots for Kids, Inside Sources Say

[Red Phoenix]

According to the two people who spoke to Politico on condition of anonymity, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has advocated internally to have the CDC stop recommending COVID-19 vaccines for children, arguing there is little scientific evidence that the shot provides a benefit to babies and young children.

My comment > Of course RFK Jr. should have done this on Day-1 of his tenure.   But I understand that he has to tread carefully

Two excerpts from the article:

...

The CDC’s current Child and Adolescent Immunization Schedule recommends that children as young as 6 months old get vaccinated against COVID-19 with three doses of Pfizer’s shot or two doses of Moderna’s shot.

The CDC also recommends children 6 months and up receive an annual booster dose at least eight weeks after the most recent dose.

Removing the COVID-19 shot from the CDC schedule wouldn’t bar kids from receiving the vaccine, Politico said.

However, the move would likely have large ramifications as state and local authorities look to the CDC schedule when deciding vaccine requirements for students.

‘The vaccine was never needed’ for kids

Pediatrician Dr. Michelle Perro supported removing the shot from the CDC’s vaccine schedule for kids.

“Children possess a robust and highly adaptive innate immune system that has consistently shown effective protection against SARS-CoV-2, with severe outcomes exceedingly rare to near zero in healthy pediatric populations,” she said.

Perro said there is a vast amount of documented harm following COVID-19 vaccination, including myocarditis, pericarditis, dysregulated immune responses and neurological injury.

“These findings have always called for the cessation and re-evaluation of risk-benefit ratios, which never happened, especially in light of the fact that natural immunity in children offers durable protection and the vaccine was never needed,” Perro said.

As of March 28, there were over 56, 000 reports of injuries or deaths following COVID-19 vaccination among kids 17 years and under filed in the Vaccine Adverse Event System (VAERS).

Just who do this unscientific CDC rabble think they are?

 

I agree with the OP that this should have been done on day one.

 

Jeez! C'om Kennedy; get some action going. You have the authority; get with it.

I think that recommending mRNA for kids is one of the reasons that the CDC has lost so much credibility with the public.  Which, unfortunately, has leaked over to many other discussions.
