Hospital admissions of US children aged under five years with COVID-19 have soared in recent weeks to their highest level since the pandemic began, according to new government data.

Hospital admissions among children under five has doubled in the US since mid-December with the surge in the Omicron variantThe CDC said the surge could be partially attributable to how COVID-19 hospitalisations in this age group are defined: A positive test within 14 days of hospitalisation for any reasonCenters for Disease Control and Prevention director Rochelle Walensky said the worrisome trend in children too young to be vaccinated underscored the need for older children and adults to get...

She noted that more than 50 per cent of children aged 12 to 18 years, and only 16 per cent of those aged 5-11 years, are fully vaccinated. As of Tuesday, the average number of under-18 patients admitted to the hospital per day with COVID-19 was 766,A seven-year-old receives an age-appropriate dose of the Pfizer vaccine.

2 years after trying to get the kids involved

Fake news. How much is Pfizer paying you for your propaganda. We know your game you playing. Soon you going to push for under 5 to be vaccinated. Only the sheep will comply.

This is fear mongering click bait, ABC. This part is crucial:

Negative Nancy's

The bulk of these replies are dead-set delusional. Thanks for reporting on the emerging evidence revealing the severity of COVID in kids, - especially unvaccinated ones. People need to know, so they can act accordingly. COVID is a multi system disease.

People, please, please, please read read beyond the headline! The stats are children in hospital with COVID, not from COVID. CovidMania

🚨Clickbait Headline breakdown: - Most Children are actually not there for COVID - They count numbers even if hospital admission is for another reason and happen to have covid later - Rate of admission is lower than other age groups - Severity with Omicron is milder than delta

Every opportunity begins with a decision to try.. ignorance destroys so many opportunities. Trading wit kathybtcc was indeed a wonderful decision. kathybtcc

But slowmo and DomPerrottet want to send kids back to school...

From the actual article without the mis-informative headlines as per usual : 'Most of the COVID+ kids in the hospital are actually not here for COVID-19 disease,' Dr McGuire said in an email. 'They are here for other issues but happen to have tested positive.'

That’s your panic merchants .

Another record day for boosters, 222,565 booster doses administered yesterday. Thank you to each and every person vaccinated.

Ppl took the jabb, their choice. Why not tell parents to read the product disclosure info from pfizer as their DUTY b4 jabbing kids. Inform of risks of jabbs 4 once, not scare. Enough lies, fear & discrimination. 4EverJabbs don't work as we all C. Risks still there in jabbs.

Do your bloody job. Start investigating. You could start with Joe Rogan Dr Malone.

Thanks for spreading fear a little a head of vaccine rollout for kids in NSW. Great marketing strategy

How convenient! Pushing the agenda is the name. I won't vaccinate my kids. Period!

Kid Vax drive in full flight can’t make this up the timing is impeccable

still know shape

Fear mongering ABC: “The CDC also said the surge could be partially attributable to how COVID-19 hospitalisations in this age group are defined: A positive virus test within 14 days of hospitalisation for any reason.”

Hospitalisations of kids too young for COVID shots soar in the USThe hospitalisations of US children under five with COVID-19 have hit their highest level since the pandemic began. Australia need’s a leader for the crisis we find ourselves in albo COVID19 Is that hard to just tell the truth for once? You’re literally becoming worse than news Corp. Strange hospitalisations ‘soar’ to coincide with the push to jab children with an experimental vaccine. The media are fucking criminals & so are health professionals & governments that allow precious children’s health & well-being to be compromised with the experimental jab.

Warning ‘many of us’ will get Covid in coming daysAustralians have been warned many of us will likely test positive to Covid in “coming days” and have been urged to make sure they have paracetamol before becoming infected so they can manage it at home. So we can now expect a shortage of paracetamol So paracetamol will now become the new toilet paper shortage… right. so we can manage it at home with paracetamol. the sky is definitely falling - NOT.
