There is a high school sophomore from Texas who wakes up at 6 a.m. on the weekends when she knows her parents are asleep, so she can secretly and quietly make calls as an ambassador for a teen pro-vaccine group, fighting off vaccine misinformation.

The company said it plans to file safety and efficacy data in early October, with FDA emergency authorization expected to follow.There is a high school sophomore from Texas who wakes up at 6 a.m.

Lindenberger testified before a Senate committee about how misinformation that appears on Facebook, Twitter and other social media fuels the anti-vaccination movement.Since then, Parsa began reaching out to teens with anti-vaccine and vaccine-hesitant parents on Reddit to answer their questions, guide them through state consent laws and help them educate and convince their parents to allow them to get vaccinated.

“Pretty much all states have created situations in which a minor can provide consent but they're pretty limited to the treatment and diagnosis of sexually transmitted diseases, the treatment and diagnosis of pregnancy and pregnancy-related conditions, the provision of psychiatric and substance abuse care," said Diekema “But vaccinations have never fallen into that category or those categories.

A child in Nevada brought Covid home to her unvaxxed family. Two weeks later 4 adults are on ventilators, her mom & dad, and 2 are declining quickly. The others are home but symptoms are worsening.

Well now it looks like the secret is out…

WTG teens🙌🏽🙌🏽

This is not in America it is in India only

Nerd alert!

Grounded for a year

Anyone else keep getting notified about this tweet? I get it all the time.

So sad. Child doesn’t even know the truth that she is probably facilitating the death of many teens. I wish someone would educate this child. Has the desire to do something good but not the information. Pray for this child when the truth reaches her.

sooo is this the guy that runs the pro vaxx bots on twitter ?

She has to hide it from anti-vax parents? Inspirational and sad at the same time.

There’s a reason why minors can’t do most things. Does she know the science and history behind vaccines in general? The article states that she’s pro-vaccine only because teens want to get back to a normal life. Not about the concerns of dying.

So sad that we have teens being secretive about what they do because their parents don't approve. Between sexual orientation, abortion and now being a closeted pro-vaxxer... Hwne can we start teaching our kids they don't have to hide who they are and respect their decisions?

She’s a beautiful responsible young lady 🇨🇦

NERRRRRRRD ALERRRRRT!

The person in the photograph isn't a she...

Who is she calling this early on a weekend? No normal teen is up before 9 am and none will actually answer a call

Please inform public Side Effects I have many modernatx side effects including Neuro&Muscular, & New Onset Atrial Fibrillation Prior to Covid Vaccine I had Stress Echo, CT Chest, EKG & Cardiologist told me my heart was completely healthy Nurse injected me also caused me SIRVA

Please spend your time on something more worthwhile

That makes sense.

My wife and I are vaxed. We encourage others to get vaxed. My young teen is not because we all know kids 18 and under are extreme low risk. Rain’s parents trusted her with a phone. Huge mistake.

When kids are smarter than their parents 💕👏🏼

😂😂😂

One of the great tragedies of the 21st century. Millions of healthy teens injured and dying with damaged hearts.

wow

Thank you for this important work you're doing!

Who's she calling at 6am? But seriously good for her

TimJDillon

Hes not missing hes hiding, and hes not in danger, hes just wanted for doing something horrible to Gabby

Dumb

What teenager is answering their phone at 6 in the morning?

All nay sayers and negative people. Why don’t your part to add to cohesive society instead of spitting venom at someone who cares

We are at a very dangerous place. There is one official solution for every massive problem. Anyone who questions is demonized as immoral.

He does not have all informations.Vaccines are good but for the adequate ages.

Does he also change his shirt when they wake up? 🤔

Photo is Arin Parsa who works for Teens for Vaccines. The young woman is anonymous. Perhaps people should try reading, before commenting. Or is that not a thing anymore?

She Fake news

Our future Ardmore concerned about the covidProblem than our adults.what a SHAME.maybe since this known and has been put out there ❤️❤️❤️by a concerned child they will THINK and change there minds for the betterment of the world and our sisters and brothers in it.

There is hope for the future.

Well, it's not a secret anymore now. Thanks for getting her grounded.

If she is pro-vaxx now, she clearlynis the disinformation.

Yes!!!!!!

Pfizer and Moderna would be proud. Is he an intern for them?

🤣🤣

You’re in high school. You don’t know shit.

That looks like a dude

Looks good on college resumes also....

What kind of misinformation? Like they work?

Doing God's work.

This is the exact reason children need their parents to sign.

👍

Youth will sabe many if they mobilize.

Damn... She's got a hell of a moustache.

Y’all are all full of crap. There is kids dying from the vaccine and getting long term after effects from it. I will never and I mean never give my kids this Covid vaccine nor will I get it for myself. Needs to be tested way more.

If the vaccine giver takes a shot first I will take mine, too! I was talking with the Lotd and he told me to be cautious, make sure the hypodermics are new or sterilized clean!

Covid snorting stations are being set up for those that want natural immunity. Please sign the waiver beforehand to forgo any supplemented hospital emergency and ongoing treatment and get your forehead tattoo so we know to stay away from until everyone who wants to be vaxxed is.

And you just outed her 😒😒😒😒

Idiot

Smart-Dedicated kid

I'm glad the next generation of kids are seeing this mess and will do everything in their power to avoid the same fate.

My son in law had a very bad reaction to the first shot now my daughter is to scared to get her second it took him 6 months and four surgeries to get back to normal but the rest of the family got it we are all fine they said his was 1 in 35 million chance

Very smart kid. I wish all who have anti-vax parents could step up without fear.

I was against vac, but after finally getting it fill much safer…

That’s fantastic. Someone who finally gets it. 🙏❤️

I wonder how many children are standing behind their screaming anti-masker, anti-vaccine parents thinking 'omg help me' out of embarrassment and/or need?

Kinda looks like a HE🤔

Good thing because his parents would probably ground him if they were awake.

These media companies ,AP ,Reuters ABC, MSNBC , CNN are truly the enemy of humanity and they need to be exposed and ended!

Muhammad Qasim’s dreams are full of warnings and glad tidings for the entire Muslim Ummah and they assert that Pakistan has to assume the role of the leadership for the entire Muslim world. I believe Muhammad Qasim is the awaited Imam Al-Mahdi.

Young zombies

That's great, because 100% compliance is needed.

Stockholm Syndrome

nice

Vaccine cults.
