Pfizer-funded paper and researchers conflate two- and three-dose vax for young kids to bury muddled results on hospital visits. ‘Trace’ mRNA shows up in vaxxed breast milk, vax weakens immune response to other pathogens in 5-11 year-olds.
New research on how COVID-19 vaccines affect children and nursing mothers, and the government’s own estimates of severe side effects in teenagers, is putting scrutiny on the CDC’s recommendation that all ages stay “up to date” with newly authorized formulations.
Fully vaccinated versus unvaccinated children under age 5 were roughly as likely to require medical visits among those testing positive for SARS-CoV-2 in a large California study, challenging the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s claim that the shots “protect children against severe disease and hospitalization.”
A small Australian study found that 5-11 year-olds after vaccination had weaker immune responses to non-COVID infections. Trace amounts of mRNA were found in breast milk tested up to 45 hours after vaccination among lactating mothers in a small New York study.
Before recommending the new Omicron XBB.1.1-based mRNA vaccines this month, the CDC’s own Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices reviewed trial data that showed a high rate of “severe” side effects among 12-17 year-olds who took the original monovalent vaccines.
