BREAKING: Kids aged 5 to 11 will soon be able to get a COVID-19 shot at their pediatrician’s office, local pharmacy and potentially even at school. The White House is detailing plans for the expected authorization of the Pfizer shot for younger children.

More than 25,000 pediatricians and primary care providers have already signed on to administer COVID-19 vaccine shots to kids, the White House said, in addition to the tens of thousands of retail pharmacies that are already administering shots to adults. Hundreds of school- and community-based clinics will also be funded and supported by the Federal Emergency Management Agency to help speed putting shots into arms.

While children are at lower risk than older people of having serious side effects from COVID-19, those serious consequences do occur – and officials note that vaccination both dramatically reduces those chances and will reduce the spread of the more transmissible delta variant in communities, contributing to the nation’s broader recovery from the pandemic.

Murthy said the administration, which is promoting employer vaccine mandates for adults, is leaving the question of requirements for schools to local and state officials, but called them “reasonable.” The administration notes that kids who get their first shot within a couple weeks of the expected approval in early November will be fully vaccinated by Christmas.

SAVE YOUR KIDS!!!

Game over man, game over.

Unbelievable they still don’t know what the long term affects will be on adults now they want to give our children shots. Politicians should never be allowed to set medical anything.

JUST DO IT AAAAAAA!!!!!!

We parents have been hearing “soon” for over 6 months. Again and again, “soon.”

Kids dont need this, it's absurd.

When kids start having bad reactions, and heart problems. I don't want to see go fund me pages, I want to see the parents go to jail. My kid's aren't taking it, anyone who makes there kids take the jab is a lost cause. Don't let your kids take the shot, they don't need it.

Fuck that. I’ll die on this hill, my boys won’t ever get this trash.

North Korea Confirms Submarine-Launched Missile Test As White House Warns Against Further ‘Provocations’Submarine-launched missiles are harder to detect and could pose a significant threat to South Korea and U.S. forces in the region. Honestly I should get a submarine instead of Twitter for attention and validation. Why doesn't America stop warning already and attempt a retaliation so we take popcorn and watch? Provocations? Why? Since Britain and the US can not abide by the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, why must China and Russia abide by it? Australia can obtain nuclear submarines, as can countries such as Iran, 🇲🇾, Indonesia and North Korea.

White House doubles down on executive action as Democrats weigh trimming Hill climate planThe Biden administration is working to salvage its credibility on climate change by shoring up key provisions in a troubled budget bill and flexing its muscle to show its ability to act without the help of Congress to cut emissions. 'The Biden administration is working to salvage its credibility on climate change.,,' is a value judgment, not a statement of fact. Stick to reporting. Its a massive money making scam.
