Fauci: Mandating COVID-19 Vaccines for School Children Is a 'Good Idea'

White House Chief Medical Adviser Anthony Fauci said Sunday that he would support a COVID-19 vaccine mandate for school students due to the highly contagious delta variant that has resulted in a surge of coronavirus cases across the country.

"I believe that mandating vaccines for children to appear in school is a good idea. We’ve done this for decades and decades, requiring polio, measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis. So this would not be something new requiring vaccinations for children to come to school," Fauci said Sunday in on CNN’s "State of the Union."

Fauci’s comments come a week after the Food and Drug Administration granted approval to the Pfizer-BioNTech coronavirus vaccine. This approval prompted more than 100 congressional lawmakers last week to call on the FDA to give initial authorization of vaccines for children under 12 as soon as possible.

Fauci, in a different interview on ABC’s "This Week," said that he hopes the FDA will act quickly to approve the jab for children under 12-years-old.

"The data has been collected and we should have enough data by, I would say, the end of September, middle to end of September, early October, so that those data can then be presented to the FDA to examine for the risk benefit ratio of safety and effectiveness," Fauci said.

How many kids under 12 y/o died from Covid? Not with Covid or Covid-like symptoms...

Here are the fatality rates (IFRs) by sex and age ...

Despite these challenges, calculating accurate IFRs is important. To generate the best estimates possible, a team of scientists led by Megan O'Driscoll and Henrik Salje collected data on COVID-19 deaths in 45 countries and nearly two dozen seroprevalence studies (which determine the percentage of a population that has antibodies against the coronavirus and, hence, the percentage likely to have been infected). Using this data, they determined sex- and age-specific IFRs. (See chart.)

According to the following site 361 children 17 yrs and younger have died of covid as of Aug. 18th 2021.

Covid19-24 doesn’t approach the severe crippling of poleo?
Maybe after the shot.

According to the Knox County (TN) Health Department website, there have been 8,150 cases of COVID-19 in kids 0-17. A whopping 33 needed hospitalization. Deaths? 0. Zip. Zilch. Nada.

Tell me again why mandatory vaccines are a good idea.

The important thing is profits for the drug companies and personal billions for the CEOs. Everything else serves that.
