Research published in the June 2024 issue of Infection: A Journal of Infectious Diseases found that after being infected with COVID-19 that 8.3% of the children who were vaccinated for the disease got asthma, but only 4.7% of the children who were not vaccinated got asthma. Further, the fatality rate for those who were vaccinated was nearly six per thousand. For those who were not vaccinated the fatality rate was fewer than one per thousand. These differences were considered statistically significant.
COVID expert Dr. Anthony Fauci called the differences "mercifully small. Six deaths per thousand is a very small percentage. In fact it is less than one percent. Granted, it's six times larger than the unvaccinated cohort, but in neither case can it be said that the risk of death is high. Parents should definitely not beat themselves up for following the government's advice to have their children vaccinated. They did what all recognized authorities thought was the right thing at the time. That the thinking turned out to be wrong should not be used as an excuse not to follow these authorities in the future because next time they might very well be right."
