False Claim that CDC Would Require Covid Vaccines for Kids Spurs Outrage
Yahoo News ^ | Wed, October 19, 2022 | Dan Diamond and Lena H. Sun

On Tuesday morning, a Fox News contributor claimed on Twitter that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was set to mandate that schoolchildren get coronavirus vaccines. By Tuesday evening, the claim was being repeated by the nation's most popular cable news show, and had been amplified to millions more on social media online.

"The CDC is about to add the Covid vaccine to the childhood immunization schedule, which would make the vax mandatory for kids to attend school," host Tucker Carlson tweeted, sharing a segment from his show that has been viewed more than 1.5 million times online.

But the claim was wrong: The CDC cannot mandate that schoolchildren receive vaccines, a decision left up to states and jurisdictions, the agency and multiple public health officials said. The initial tweet by Nicole Saphier, a radiologist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, also misconstrued a planned meeting of CDC advisers, who voted Wednesday to add coronavirus vaccines to the federal Vaccines for Children program, a safety-net program that offers the shots at no cost. A separate meeting set for Thursday would address the agency's immunization schedule for children.

Propaganda technique for fact checkers who want to say false to something true: find a version that added a false detail.

This is BS, of course they can and will. Through extortion of fed funding. Just like the Feds did to the healthcare industry.

So,this is a flat out lie. Indirectly THEY WILL DO THIS...

The way it works is VERY SIMPLE. Once the Federal Government (which cannot be sued) deems something, then the ONLY ‘safe’ option for lower levels of government (states, counties, etc.) is to do EXACTLY what the federal government has deemed. Otherwise they’re wide open for litigation and will have to prove they know more than the (corrupt) CDC.

Only REASONABLE way to deal with this is to PREVENT the federal government from ‘recommending’ anything.

The reaction scared the CDC into reversing policy. Didn’t want to get up-close and personal with lampposts, I guess.

this is what RFK Jr claims. hope someone can check it out:

31 Dec 2021: WSAU: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Explains Why Fauci is Going After Children
By Meg Ellefson
RFJ Jr: “They are never going to market a vaccine, allow people access to a vaccine, an approved vaccine without getting liability protection. Now the emergency use authorization vaccines have liability protection under the PREP Act and under the CARES Act.

“So as long as you take an emergency use vaccine, you can’t sue them. Once they get approved, now you can sue them, unless they can get it recommended for children. Because all vaccines that are recommended, officially recommended for children get liability protection, even if an adult gets that vaccine.

“That’s why they are going after the kids. They know this is going to kill and injure a huge number of children, but they need to do it for the liability protection.”

By law, vaccine manufacturers have NO LIABILITY. If somebody wants to sue a vaccine manufacturer they can’t do it they can only apply to a government organization that does not pay out very much.

I don’t think there’s any such thing as a class action lawsuit against vaccine makers.

I am curious… lots of state compliance is tied to federal funding.
Even in hospitals, the flu vaccine compliance is directly tied to Medicare disbursement. I saw people get fired for not taking it the first year it was required. I was standing outside the CEOs office when he said, fire them now, if they won’t take it. It must be the money.
