The FDA will assess the jab for children aged five to 11

Pfizer says the Covid-19 shot it developed with BioNTech is 90.7% effective against symptomatic cases in children aged five to 11, according to a briefing document posted on the Food and Drug Administration’s website.

The document was posted on the FDA’s website in advance of the meeting, scheduled for October 26. The efficacy result is based on a trial of about 2,250 children, according to the document. In the document, Pfizer also released new safety data from an additional 2,250 children enrolled in the trial as part of an expansion of the study requested by US regulators. The data found no new safety problems, and side effects were consistent with what has been previously seen with the vaccine.

Symptoms were milder in the cases that occurred among vaccinated children, and none developed fevers, according to the document. Most of the cases occurred in August and September.

So if 9% die its fine

What about the 9%? If its not 100% why use it? Why are you not taking responsibility for any adverse effects? Are you trying to kill our children?

Oh boy 🤦🏾‍♂️ HealthZA let me guess. 5 to 11 year olds don’t need parental consent to get the jab as well.
