Child With No Other Health Issues dies From COVID-19 in Houston, Health Department Says
KHOU11 ^ | August 26, 2021 | Michelle Homer

For the first time, a child who had no other health issues has died from COVID-19 at a Houston hospital, the city health department reported Thursday.

There have been six other pediatric deaths in Houston, but all of those children had underlying health conditions.

“Serious chronic medical problems, the things they’ve unfortunately been going to medical doctors regularly for most of their life. That’s what most of those have been," Chief Medical Officer for the City of Houston Dr. David Persse said.

The Houston Health Department said the boy who died in July was between the ages of 10 and 19 and had not been vaccinated. They say he tested positive for COVID-19, but they don't know yet if it was a variant of the virus, like delta.

They aren't releasing other details because of privacy laws.

“This tragedy serves as a reminder that children, even without underlying health conditions, can get seriously ill and die from COVID-19," Persse said. “Getting vaccinated is not only about protecting you, it’s about protecting everyone close to you, especially your family, from serious illness and death.”

They are going to say Covid, even if it wasn’t, because, I think, hospitals get more federal money for Covid deaths.

So we cannot trust any of the reporting on this.

I wonder if the parents, or care giver, had been “vax’d.

Friends of ours (“vax’d”), recently gave their 4year old grandson China virus. Thankfully, he recovered very fast. I imagine he has antibodies, for life, now.

Some fiend, somewhere, soon, will want him to take these scary shots.

"... between the ages of 10 and 19 . . . ."

"Child"

If truly a "child," then the odds are pretty good that we're talking a case of RSV, with a false-positive COVID diagnosis intentionally generated in order to collect the greater CMS reimbursement.

Yes, LOL. I keep looking for the science, but never seem to find it.

It’s as tough to track as a deer in autumn... ;)

Ha! How do we know, for certain, that this person wasn’t “vax”d.....since we do know, that they’re counting someone who had these shots more than 14 days out, as “UN-vax”d?

I don’t trust the media, or this “health” official, at all.

I will say, I am sick to death of this modern society that has this infantile, statist, unhealthy obsession with “safety”.

I did not feel this way for much of my life, but in the last 30 years, it seems like the stops have come out, and seems more about control than “safety”.

ESPECIALLY now.

Just a means of pushing these shots on the young.

Sickening.

the ***CHILD*** who died in July was between the ages of 10 and 19

i guess if the new def of a vax isn’t really a vax, and men are called women, and grown men can claim to be a child for asylum purposes, i guess a child can be betwn 10 and 19 friggin years old...

Between 10-19 y/o. Why they don’t answer specifically is beyond me.

Some people who look otherwise healthy can have a strong inflammatory response to virus.

I wonder what the numbers for medical malpractice were during covid ? If there was a huge drop off than that would be pretty suspicious.

Don’t forget about deaths by not going to the doctor/hospital.

Some stage 2 cancers might have become stage 3 in the 18 months of fear and non emergency visits.

They claimed another child’s death a couple months ago was from Covid and he had no underlying health issues.

Later, come to find out, he had bacterial staph AND strep.

When it is somebody famous, like BBC anchor Lisa Shaw or Irish soccer star Roy Butler (23 at death), eventually they can't hide the truth. In the cases of Saw and Butler, their national MSM said, "Died after a short illness." Only when relatives pushed and pushed, did we find out weeks or months later, from coroners' reports, that the Clot Shot killed them.

But if you not famous, just a Regular Joe or Jill, you just died "after a short illness," and that's that.
