As the federal government considers approving Pfizer's COVID-19 shot for children ages 5 to 11, a Harvard University epidemiologist is urging parents not to vaccinate their children.
"I'm a huge fan of vaccinating children for measles, for mumps, for polio, for rotavirus, and many other diseases, that's critical. But COVID is not a huge threat to children," he said on the channel's "American Thought Leaders" program.
"But COVID is not a big risk factor for children."
Further, CDC data show children generally do not spread COVID-19 and have little risk of any adverse effects.
In the Nordic nation there were 1.8 million such children "Who got through the first wave without vaccines, of course, without masks, without any sort of distancing in schools."
For children, Kulldorf added, "Even if you haven't had COVID, the risk of serious disease or death is minuscule."
'A side effect that we can't measure yet'The interview with Kulldorf took place before an FDA advisory panel on Wednesday voted 17-0, with one absention, to recommended emergency use authorization of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine for children 5-11, despite acknowledging the lack of safety data and a high survival rate from infection.
