Vaccination of infants and toddlers in the U.S.

[chic]

Pfizer has started clinical trials for infants and toddlers, 6 months - 5 years and expects to begin vaccinating this age group in the spring of 2022.

Weren't we just going to be vaccinating the elderly and the vulnerable? Isn't that what they said a year ago?

I can't see why infants need to be vaccinated especially if they are breastfed.

You mean if the mom is vaxxed the kids will get it in her breast milk? That's a possibility. But I was vaccinated for smallpox at 3 months old so maybe not.

Don't new moms have extra immunity as do children until about 2?

About 10% of children have at least one shot so far.

Why should little kids be vaccinated at all? Especially infants.

That's why. And boosters every 6 months.

I'm surprised Pfizer is admitting that it's a "Clinical Trial," rather than saying something like, "We must protect children."

Protect them from what? Their immune systems are just developing and need to recognize foreign cells as abnormal and attackable Otherwise their immune systems will never develop properly.

"Otherwise their immune systems will never develop properly."

And just think of the future of the pfizer industry. All those young children needing vaccines for to cover all the viruses that their immune systems no longer work on their own to protect them.

So this is a SENIORS forum; and seniors are sort of wise, huh? I'll just give my opinion; it's sooooo TOTALLY WRONG.
Leave those kids alone. But they won't, will they? arrrggghhhhh.

The United States gives babies a Hep B (blood or sexually transmissible only) vaccine within 24 hours of birth whose mothers don't have Hep B. If that makes sense, anything does...
