@hrs2044 How large of a risk should a minor be FORCED to take for six to nine months of immunity to something that will rarely be serious for someone this young? More to the point, should we be permitted to discuss this, or do the oligarchs and their political lackeys decide, and we better shut up?

@notrandom2 In the US, yes. A study just came out on showing how much life expectancy fell last year -- HERE. Not in Germany, hardly at all in France, etc. But we had record drug overdose deaths last year, too.

Certainly one possibility. Not yet known. But all the more reason to oppose mandates.

This. Why should we want to live, remind me again?

@nuclearcatbaby1131 Because one single study, a small one, released in preprint suggested we should RESEARCH this issue further -- not that it is true. Got that? Quit fearmongering for the other side.

You are so right. The mandates make people mistrust the vaccines. Of COURSE. They jeopardize trust in all institutions. This is nothing to joke about.

@sagathehardworker2190 I agree. A dispassionate analysis of what Sweden did and what the results were is necessary. By "results," I include immunity acquired from COVID exposure or illness, if any. Totally neutral and apolitical -- there is an entire developed country with exceptionally great public health to study. "Crickets?"

@LonelyTreeSunset "The assessment by the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) is that the health benefits from vaccination are marginally greater than the potential known harms. However, the margin of benefit is considered too small to support universal vaccination of healthy 12 to 15 year olds at this time. It is not within the JCVI’s remit to consider the wider societal impacts of vaccination, including educational benefits. The government may wish to seek further views on the wider societal and educational impacts from the Chief Medical Officers of the UK 4 nations. For the vast majority of children, SARS-CoV-2 infection is asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic and will resolve without treatment. Of the very few children aged 12 to 15 years who require hospitalisation, the majority have underlying health conditions. The committee has recommended the expansion of the list of conditions to which the offer applies for at-risk 12 to 15 year olds. There is evidence of an association between mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and myocarditis. This is an extremely rare adverse event. The medium- to long-term effects are unknown and long-term follow-up is being conducted. Given the very low risk of serious COVID-19 disease in otherwise healthy 12 to 15 year olds, considerations on the potential harms and benefits of vaccination are very finely balanced and a precautionary approach was agreed." NO WONDER UK has greater vaccine compliance!!

Thank you .

@scoutwithoutclout I don't disagree. I saw all that, it was disgraceful. People have a right to remain neutral, and to demand that institutions prove they are trustworthy. When institutions attempt to coerce people into taking any medical treatment into their bodies, or worse yet, to force it on their minor children, they destroy any trust they ever built. I guess I should say IF they built any.

@scoutwithoutclout For any medical treatment, the burden of proof is on the proponent. It is never your obligation to prove why you shouldn't take it. Whoever wants you to take it needs to address your concerns and persuade you, not the other way around.

@sagathehardworker2190 This is a fluid situation, and new information is coming to light all the time. Why would that surprise anyone?

@sagathehardworker2190 Thanks for this! A lot of places are rethinking vaccines for under 25 or under 30 -- and especially for minors. It was in the NYTimes today. There is no point in pretending it's all fine, just shut up and get your shot.
