FDA: veiligheid van het vaccin voor 5 jarigen weten we pas als we ze gaan vaccineren

[Hoofdstraat]

De Amerikaanse FDA keurt het vaccin goed vanaf 5 jaar met de melding dat we maar echt gaan weten hoe veilig het is als we de kinderen ermee gaan beginnen inspuiten. Een waarheid als een koe.

But even as that news landed, some are pointing to a few less-than-resounding comments from one of the advisory committee members. While voting for the authorization, Eric Rubin acknowledged that it was “a much tougher one, I think, than we had expected coming into it.” He also said that “we’re never going to learn about how safe this vaccine is unless we start giving it.”

Those latter comments, in particular, have begun circulating widely in conservative media and among vaccine skeptics. Some have likened them to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) statement that Congress had “to pass [Obamacare] so that you can find out what’s in it.” Others have suggested the authorization would be akin to turning children into guinea pigs.
