The U.S. Food and Drug Administration's vaccine advisers gave a thumbs-up to vaccines from Moderna and Pfizer for the littlest kids.
Dr. Peter Marks, FDA's vaccine chief, opened the meeting with data showing a "quite troubling surge" in young children's hospitalizations during the omicron wave, and noted 442 children under 4 have died during the pandemic. That's far fewer than adult deaths, but should not be dismissed in considering the need for vaccinating the youngest kids, he said.
The two vaccines use the same technology but there are differences. In a call with reporters earlier this week, vaccine experts noted that the shots haven't been tested against each other, so there's no way to tell parents if one is superior. Pfizer's vaccine is for children 6 months through 4 years; Moderna's vaccine is for 6 months through 5 years.
Pfizer's submitted data found no safety concerns and suggested that three shots were 80% effective in preventing symptomatic coronavirus infections. But that was based on just 10 COVID-19 cases; the calculation could change as more cases occur in the company's ongoing studies. The same FDA panel on Tuesday backed Moderna's half-sized shots for ages 6 to 11 and full-sized doses for teens. If authorized by the FDA, it would be the second option for those age groups. Currently Pfizer vaccine is their only choice.
Sadists.
Absurdly unnecessary. It won’t stop them getting the virus and they’re at virtually no risk if they do get the virus. So, the vaccine is unnecessary for them making the vaccine risk (however small you believe it to be) totally unnecessary.
Great news for parents who want their kids vaccinated!
They are giving the children the steriliy drugs! This isn’t a real vaccine. We are at war with genocidal maniacs!
🤮💔
Stop pushing vaccines they cause nothing but hate and division.
They should give them the Covid 22 ones: 3 shots in 3 weeks
Utterly unnecessary.

Time to ask some serious questions, Global Yup and this had nothing to do with the science, and everything to do with Trudeau’s actions on breaking his own deceptive mandates!
