Glad you wrote this. I have been telling family that of course(!) I will get my children vaccinated when available but it not a simple moral equation to want North America to suck up more limited supply of vaccines for 12 year olds, while 70 year olds in other countries wait.

Excellent piece. I clapped thrice on Medium.

300 dead kids. Not mentioned. 3000 hospitalized kids. Not mentioned. Tens of thousands who lost a parent. Not mentioned. Potential long-term Covid side effects. Not mentioned. Theoretical harms from vaccine. Mentioned.

Yes! Just spoke about this in the NYT story regarding the FDA authorization. The right thing to do is send supply to those at higher risk in countries where coverage and supply is low (Ie, India, for example)

That may be the right thing to do. But they didn’t make that point in the article. They neglected the potential harms of Covid in kids (300 dead, 3000 hospitalized, tens of thousands orphaned) to conclude vaccine offered essentially no benefit, when it does.

Thank you, @sdbaral@WesPegden@VPrasadMDMPH, for your pragmatism, honesty, and genuine leadership during the most challenging time in our history, where we have the most remarkable lack; of leadership in PH! While others became entwined in Politics, you all have stayed awayThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

I think you are right. Could your article also have included some discussion about why children are not routinely vaccinated against influenza, where presumably the risk/benefit considerations are different?
