KATU 2 - ABC affiliate ^ | June 21, 2021 | Megan Allison

There is not yet enough evidence on the use of vaccines against COVID-19 in children to make recommendations for children to be vaccinated against COVID-19. Children and adolescents tend to have milder disease compared to adults. However, children should continue to have the recommended childhood vaccines," WHO advises.

Why would they want to sterilize children? They are the ones who are fully groomed to their will. Adults are fighting their globalist wills and vets and elderly aren’t having it at all...

... so get those troublemakers out of the way.

The developing world wants the vaccines to be administered in their countries on the same timetable (and they would’t say no to getting preferential treatment) as it is in the West. They do not care that they already have the benefit of higher immunity, thanks to the BCG vaccine (developed in the West but not part of the normal vaccine schedule in the United States), there is a lot of America hate out there, thanks to Russian propaganda in places like the Middle East, theres the insanity that is Hollywood as our bad-will ambassadors to the world, and there are multinationals that we get blamed for despite our being screwed by the same people.

They should not be vaccinated until this is no longer a trial. Healthy people maybe should not get it. I won’t get it.

This probably foreshadows the likely outcome of this ongoing policy debate/analysis in the USA, UK, Israel and elsewhere.

I’m guessing they will generally settle on vaccinating those 12 and up, but not younger. Possibly some might go with 16 or 18, but 12 is already authorized in many Countries.

I’m guessing it’ll be made available to kids under 12, but not pushed heavily. There’s almost no evidence that young kids are big sources of COVID-19 transmission and it’s very rare for them to have any problems with it. So if they aren’t spreading it and they aren’t getting sick from it, it doesn’t seem like a worthwhile thing to vaccinate them. There’s always some level of risk, but here there doesn’t seem to be any reward.

“here (vaccinating kids under 12) there doesn’t seem to be any reward.”

I think that is the bottom line, unless they find something different about kids transmitting the virus - because child deaths from the disease seem virtually non-existent.

The review of the approximately 300 myocarditis reports is supposed to occur in the USA this week. That will probably be another indicator on how policy (at home and abroad) is likely to go, with respect to vaccinating children against COVID.

The WHO changed their website within hours of posting an update saying persons under 18 should not be vaccinated until more is learned. I saw it before WHO removed the update. I wish I had made a screen capture.
