Would you be happy for your children to receive covid-19 vaccine

Who, exactly, are you calling "cowardly", and why are you doing so? What do you hope to gain from it?

For someone who says

It's a little ironic to follow up with the likes of

Pot, kettle, black? 🙄

Do remember that you're seeing anecdotal evidence, this is not being borne out in the figures and no issues have been noted for pregnant women with over 100,000 babies safely born after the mothers were vaccinated (in the US alone).

You might want to cover your eyes if you stumble into the Vaccine Side Effects thread. Clearly, those people talking in any even slightly disparaging way about any negative impact whatsoever from our beloved vaccines must just all clearly be unwitting patsies, doing the bidding of the anti vaccine scum having swallowed their misinformation hook line and sinker!

There is absolutely no alternative, and no middle ground, they are just out there spreading lies! Bastards!

Now let's get to work on them kids..

Sure thing brother. Via lessoning symptoms.

On a related note on the effectiveness of this - I'm currently living in a country with the highest rate of vaccination in Europe and I think 2nd highest in the world. Malta declared herd immunity back in May.

Here's two graphs. The first one showing that the vaccines work - 100% they do work (at their intended purpose - lessoning symptoms and keeping people alive). You can see the deaths are basically on the floor now and staying that way.

The second one shows the rates of infections over the same time period. Note again this is post 70% fully vaccinated and 80+ on one shot.

Unfortunately I do not have a statistics Ph.D so I wouldn't dare draw any conclusion from this data. I'll leave that to you smart guys to decipher, and hopefully consider it when you are harping on about how vaccinating kids will somehow halt transmission (I won't hold my breath though).

I believe that's changed now, as per Professor Peter McKenna on 28 July, pregnant women in Ireland are now actively encouraged to get vaccinated.

12 - 15 year olds are currently in that 'offered a vaccine' bracket though, despite the hardcore movement in this thread.

Don't get why you've obsessed with May, the spike is in July - with over 80% fully vaccinated.

But keep reaching you'll get there some day.

Nice edit too nice to see you calmed down a bit with the name calling.

Lunatic fringe - right, and here I am vaccinated and stating over and over again that vaccines work. I'm happy to see successful roll outs.

On the other hand you support the same but also live in an alternative universe where you deny things you don't like to see, despite them being supported by data and plain as day evidence.

Here is Gibraltar btw, on 100% vaccinated. You'll be scratching your head for a while I imagine..

It's almost like those people going back and forth could transmit Covid to the vaccinated populous there. But then, according to you that's impossible.

And btw before you misquote me again, this is not me saying that vaccines don't work. This is me saying they do work and work well, as intended. Deaths and hospitalisations are still a flat line.

73% of yesterdays cases were vaccinated - https://www.gbc.gi/news/there-are-26-new-confirmed-cases-covid-19-gibraltar-today-all-them-resident-and-19-them-vaccinated .

Try again.

I'm all for vaccinations, but for the right reasons not exaggerations that aren't supported by the evidence.

Vaccines can reduce transmission by reducing symptoms, this would support vaccinating children if kids got symptoms, but mostly they don't. So it's a falsehood representation.

My husband can't get bloods taken, and has major issues with needles. He nearly passed out when he was with me getting bloods taken when I was pregnant. Twice in the past 5 years when he's gone for bloods he's blacked out and woken up with an entire medical team around him trying to revive him.

^^^

Both times were well before his covid vaccinations - his system just cannot cope with blood draws and it shuts down. But this can happen to some people, and it's important to realise that the cause may not be the vaccine itself but the individuals reaction to needles causing a sudden drop in blood pressure.
