PM: we are worst than Mississippi in terms of vaccination and their hospitals are overrun.

[DMan7]

I feel all this leading up to making the vaccines mandatory for school children announced in this same news conference.

[The_Honourable]

Approx 800k unvaccinated

[redmanjp]

Fully vaxxed children go back to school Oct. 1st.

[aaron17]

So fully vaccinated children can get quality education ( face to face)

It’s always been a known aspect of COVID since early 2020. It became fashionable to mention when the couple incidents happened with the vaccines this year and the amount of People that get it from the vaccine are way less than the ones that get it from the actual virus . And blood clots happened ages before naturally . If you ever had a relative on warfarin .

[hover11]

Then as a child in the lower forms there is no real rush to vaccinate as they have no plan to rush them back to the classrooms anytime soon

Perhaps but there may be legal issues with mandatory vaccination as Pfizer is fully approved but for 16 and over.
Could be argued that you are forcing ppl to take or give children something that isn't fully approved for their age group and legal challenges.

You never heard about children in hospital before the vaccine was available to them. All of a sudden children are there? What changed? Everyone understands doctor patient confidentiality, however age is an issue to disclose now.... I smell BS

Exactly.

Covid — not vaccination — presents biggest blood clot risk, large study finds

Pfizer does not have WHO or EMA full approval.

Imagine reporters ask stupid questions all the time, a reporter actually asked a good question...Can you disclose how many children on the whole have been hospitalized throughout the pandemic?No we don't have those figures on hand but all of a sudden you know it have 10 hospitalized LOL

[DMan7]

There was one actually I do recall, probably almost a year ago as it was something i kinda knew.

The difference now is the P1 variant, in Brazil lots of young adults died.

No you vaccinate and worry about yourself, keep believing the government they have always been so honest with how they treat with disseminating information to the general population

They like to hide behind the patient confidentiality clause but everyone know they full of BS...
Sending your kids for this will only make them sick. By October it will have alot more kids in the hospital.

Right throughout a year and months ....you recall a single incident , let's be real Gamma has been ravaging this population for MONTHS, so no parent got it and passed it to their child after so much time, why wasn't it an issue before?

So you think PNM is capable of creating conspiracies that all these UNC doctors can't simply reveal? You give the government way too much credit.

Funny enough I never believed age was a confidentiality issue but how is it you cannot disclose if these 10 are healthy children or with co morbidities ? It easy to release that the deceased from covid were not healthy but not when they alive I really confused, isn't that a breach either way?

I not saying is a conspiracy I just saying somewhere along the line we are not given the entire truth , just what they want us to know

[redmanjp]

easier to count children who in hospital now than from since the pandemic began. for that u have to go through all the medical records. although u could argue perhaps they should have done that already to put the current figures into perspective.

I understand where you coming from just don't understand why wasn't highlighted that children were hospitalized... if that was honestly the case. It would have been rare so why not?
