The tone deafness of using a child who appears to be <5 years old for this tweet. Wow.
New @CDCMMWR found #Omicron #COVID19 hospitalization rates among children and adolescents almost 4x as high than during Delta peak. Adolescents who were unvaccinated had 6x as high hospitalization rates compared w/ adolescents who were vaccinated. bit.ly/MMWR7107e4

Isn’t it reasonable for people to be able to see the data at this point? The complete lack of transparency DOES NOT create a culture of safety or trust surrounding vaccines. I trust exactly ZERO people right now to advocate for my children < 5.

First family from New York was spotted last weekend.
We support every family making the decision to travel for the vaccination.

#UrgencyOfNormal people: Why is your kid’s freedom to go mask-free more important than my under-five kid’s freedom to not get #covid? What about kids with cancer/diabetes/vulnerable family members? Is their freedom secondary to yours as well? #UrgencyOfEquity

I am sick and tired of idiots saying we don’t need to protect kids! ➡️ If a classroom of 30 kids get COVID without masks, then statistically ~4 will suffer #LongCovid—that is NOT okay! I’m so damn mad.
Join me & @PeterHotez to talk with @mehdirhasan on @MehdiHasanShow at 7pm EST
Let this sink in—If a school class of 30 kids get #COVID19– as many as 4 kids could have #LongCovid—1 in 7 says 🇬🇧 data. Kids should not need to beg us adults to listen!
HT @Ruth5News, who's had long Covid for over 18 months, reports on 2 kids affected.

@FDACBER @US_FDA @DrWoodcockFDA @DrPaulOffit over 400 babies under 5 are now dead due to covid - a vaccine preventable disease. This stops now. Parents have the right to choose to protect their kids. The rest of our country has failed them. #Immunizeunder5s #offlabelU5

I really can’t believe this drivel.
I am not an academic. I’m a real doctor who cares for patients and I’m a real parent so I’m just going to spend a few minutes commenting on how this is not a serious nor trustworthy article.

Over 1000 American children have died from COVID in 2 years despite many precautions. Even tho we have a safe vaccine for many kids, some non-pediatric doctors favor relaxing precautions & letting kids get infected "naturally." What is natural about 1000 kids dying?
Eva M,MD retweeted
To the thread that won’t end, I will add this.
The biggest risk among kids may in fact be MIS-C. And vaccines have been shown to reduce long COVID/MIS-C. This may be reason enough to alter the endpoint in the midst of the Omicron wave to get vaccines in little arms./reallytheend

Why isn’t off label prescribing of the Covid vaccine for very young children part of the national discourse? Your thoughts?
I trust “the process.” The normal process is that all fully @US_FDA approved drugs are available to doctors for off label prescribing. @CDCgov block of #offlabelU5 is an unprecedented interference with normal practice of medicine 🧵1/x

Physician friends, sign the petition calling for the CDC to permit vaccination off label for kids <5. There is no other way to bring the pandemic under control except by increasing rates among those already eligible AND extending access to the youngest among us. – at Pittsburgh, PA

I wish I could vaccinate my child. Unfortunately, he's 4. We need a solution for kids under 5 #offlabelU5 #ImmunizeUnder5s
Vaccination helps protect children from severe illness, hospitalization, and death from #COVID19.
CDC recommends everyone ages 5 years and older get a COVID-19 vaccine and everyone ages 12 and older get a booster when eligible.

“The reason why we’re not approving is not from a lack of data,” Diamond said. “It’s because bureaucratic regulations, likely designed for safety reasons, is now interfering with what’s scientifically sound.”Please read & retweet! Thank you! usatoday.com/story/news/heal…

😞 children are not supposed to die, especially especially from vaccine - preventable diseases. Hope the EUA for under 5 comes soon and if your kid is 5 and up please get them vaccinated
Eva M,MD retweeted
It may be time to consider ‘off-label’ vaccination for children <5. Not doing so means they will all get Covid by default. And it is not a nice virus to them. Many will get MIS-C a few weeks after their illness. #offlabelU5

Better reporting and info than other news sites! Also shows why #offlabelU5 should really be considered by state governments
