    Recently, @WesPegden, @VPrasadMDMPH, and @sdbaral argued in @bmj_latest that “#CovidVaccine for children should not get emergency use authorization.” As @JHowardBrainMD explains in @ScienceBasedMed, their argument is unconvincing.https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/covid-19-vaccine-children-under-an-emergency-use-authorization/ …

        This piece is far superior in quality, knowledge, and rationale to the "Medium" article, objectively speaking. There is a strange campaign going on. My guess is limited vaccine supply is causing the release of propaganda to drive demand lower.

        Or, more cynically, the point is to sow suspicion and confusion: the govt is not to be trusted, doesn't have your best interests in mind. That way Americans do not get vaccinated, the pandemic lingers, the US looks ineffective, Biden has no clear victory...

        @JHowardBrainMD does a super job explaining the info about Covid impacts & vaccine effectiveness/safety @FDA likely took into account in issuing its 12-15 y.o. The same process will prob apply to younger children. Very clear. Great brief!

        “A recent study estimated that 43,000 American children lost a parent to COVID-19. While it is not clear how many of these adults contracted the disease from their child, it safe to speculate that some did.”

        This is wonderful. I think it is very important to point out that while 400-500 children have died from COVID it is under circumstances of wide spread mitigation. Once we have an idea of 2020 pediatric influenza deaths we will have a covid/flu comparison basis for children

        That level of child mortality is comparable to measles pre-vaccine. I don't think many sane people would claim that routine measles vaccination is a bad idea.
