The U.K. has moved a step closer to vaccinating children against Covid today, with the medicines regulator having approved the use of the Pfizer vaccine in those aged 12-15. This comes in spite of the warning from Adam Finn, Professor of Paediatrics at the University of Bristol and a member of the Government’s Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI), that children should not be given Covid vaccines because of the “side effects“. The Guardian has the story.
“We have carefully reviewed clinical trial data in children aged 12 to 15 years and have concluded that the Pfizer-BioNTech Covid vaccine is safe and effective in this age group and that the benefits of this vaccine outweigh any risk,” said Dr June Raine, the Chief Executive of the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).
She added it would be up to the JCVI to decide whether this age group would come under the vaccine deployment programme.
More than 2,000 children were involved in the clinical trial to determine the safety of the Pfizer vaccine, the Chair of the Commission on Human Medicines, Professor Sir Munir Pirmohamed, said. “We have been very careful to take into consideration the younger age group and the benefits of this population being vaccinated against any potential risk of side-effects.
“We have concluded that based on the data we have seen on the quality, effectiveness and safety of the vaccine, its benefits do outweigh any risk. The MHRA will continue to scrutinise all of the suspected side effects data received through the rigorous surveillance programme in place through the yellow card scheme and other safety surveillance measures for all of the Covid vaccines used in the U.K.”

Fortunately, both my children are adults.
However, had they still been minors there is no way that I would consent to this Government and its scientific advisers practicing Nazi-style eugenics on them.
Vaccinating children is absolute nonsense, not to say criminal.
This is so evil it actually makes me feel sick. How can it be allowed? Unbelievable! It is screaming CHILD ABUSE
“The benefits of this vaccine outweigh any risk,” said Dr June Raine. So who benefits from injecting children with an EXPERIMENTAL genetic therapy with no guarantee of efficacy, or long term safety. IMHO it certainly ain’t the children!
Medicine is littered with good ideas and interventions which in the long term prove harmful. The epidemiologists and Public Heath along with SAGE are mainly Arts Graduates,Mathematicians or non practicing academics -grossly unsuited to making a decision to vaccinate a child with a background of their clinical experience.To demand or even suggest vaccination in Children who have no choice to refuse is Orwellian. Any parent must consider carefully as to how they would feel if their child developed a reaction. Would they accept it was just a coincidence or feel guilty. We asked children to sacrifice their freedom and education to “save granny” it is now up to the generations of Grannies to sacrifice their perceived risk by saving the children and stopping the Education Unions and Government promoting vaccination in Children.
I don’t think their educational background is relevant. Many leaders in the past were highly educated in the humanities and yet would have resisted this from the start.
“It’s benefits outweigh the risks”! What risk are kids actually facing? Nada! What benefits? Protecting older people? Who have probably sold out to the government already and taken “the jab” anyway. This is purely totalitarian insanity.
Lockdown Sceptics slowly morphing into mainstream media..
Looking more like and sounding more like the Torygraph each day..
There’ll be articles soon about how Michael Curzon or Toby Dung won’t have guests to dinner parties unless they are euthan.. I mean vaccinated.. and their babies are sterilise.. I mean vaccinated.
We even have the take a PCR test advert on the site for days now.
I’m ok with the test advert. I’m not going to get vaccinated until I am 85 or older at least, so if I have to travel, I’ll be needing a cheap PCR for the foreseeable. As pointless as it is….just being pragmatic.
In my family not one of us has been tested, wore a mask, been track and traced, and certainly not ‘vaccinated’ . We’ve decided to forego travel until the leaders of this murderous death cult have been arrested and brought to justice! Their downfall is inevitable so it’s just a question of sitting it out.. realised early into the coup that I wouldn’t be travelling for a long time..
The MHRA quite obviously have not reviewed the data, see the latest breaking news from Canada:
Canadian immunologist Dr. Byram Bridle is a pro-vaccine scientist with a serious concern about the COVID-19 vaccines, and in an interview, said that new research shows “we made a big mistake” with the mRNA spike protein vaccines.
We didn’t realize it until now,” Bridle said. “We thought the spike protein was a great target antigen; we never knew the spike protein itself was a toxin and was a pathogenic protein. So, by vaccinating people we are inadvertently inoculating them with a toxin.”
It’s a toxin that can cause cardiovascular damage and infertility, he added.
As an associate professor on viral immunology at the University of Guelph, Bridle is not an outsider looking in: He was awarded a $230,000 government grant for research on COVID vaccine development. And, after looking at the data, he concluded that the spike protein does not just sit in the shoulder muscle where it’s injected, but travels to the body’s organs, including the liver, as well as the spleen, bone marrow, adrenal glands and in “quite high concentrations” in the ovaries.
Lab animals injected with the spike protein developed cardiovascular problems… Read more »
Nearly all current cases are between 10 and 19, which is why the admissions and deaths are low. There is the motivation to vaccinate them.
It is interesting that in my local area, cases suddenly shot up. A friend tells me that a load of youngsters who drink in a local pub have all been pinged by track and trace and that could well account for the increase.
Who cares if young people are a “case” when they are not getting seriously ill? This is just a nonsense and an excuse to vaccinate everyone which has been the intention all along.
Corrupt from top to bottom.
This was posted earlier by Katherine Huwig on the Understanding Covid Stats Page Ohio. I haven’t had much time to go in-depth into this yet (and would welcome thoughts) – but even the studies they’re discusising are… well there are no words. I can’t post the screenshot of the email in question but you can find it through the FOI release.
“Sometimes it’s in the empty spaces where most meaning sits. Most people have been slicing away at the whole and complete emails from Dr. Fauci’s email FOIA release. And, admittedly, some of those intact emails are highly satisfying to read.
But what is far more interesting are the pages of greyed out redactions. Consider pages 1567-1572 from his emails. They are of his correspondence with Dr. Kenneth Bergmann, Senior Medical Officer in the Division of Neurology in the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research at the FDA that took place between April 4th – April 15th, 2020.
At first glance, they are frustratingly empty, and completely redacted except for the exceptionally intriguing subject line of “a thought on selective vulnerability to SARS-CoV-2” – something we all want to know about! Why would it be redacted? How in the world does such an… Read more »
So, does that also mean the last 70+ years of messing with infant immune systems is, at best, nugatory, and at worst damaging if not potentially deadly.
As one would expect, nature and evolution have ensured that the biological systems are designed to be effective, given the right support via nutrition, maternal transfer of immunity and adequate care. Tinker with them at your peril.
Not sure if anyone has mentioned this but Kate Silverton (BBC Newsreader no less **) has tweeted this:
My Question: How can we know it is ‘safe and effective’ for children when there is no long term safety data ? UK approves Pfizer jab for use in 12-15-year-olds

** At least I think she’s still with the BBC. I haven’t watched BBC News since about 2016.
A lot of sceptical replies to the comment on there which is encouraging. Some of the nay sayers sound like plants. Someone with username ‘Serena’ keeps putting repetitive replies accusing people of getting info from Facebook and not trusting experts. Not convincing at all in my opinion!
You would think that as there have been precisely ZERO deaths in healthy children and more than zero deaths from the vaccine, this would wake up more members of the public. Sadly that doesn’t appear to be the case.
Why don’t the legal profession fight for a Liability Clause, they have families too.
There must be a lot of people who think they will be among the chosen few, including their families, extended family, friends. They think they will not be touched by their compliance.
Now, after we have realised that certain named people have killed many of our population, should we not kill them? I mean we just murder them in justice. Let’s name them now on this site.
Er, unlawful. Criminal. We don’t do murder. They do.
He’s probably a Lance Corporal in 77 Brigade.
Yep, I don’t recognise the name
We have a government that is prepared to kill children to avoid having its policies called into question. This is – I would argue – even worse than some of the notorious fascist governments in the past century.
i think we are f**** !.
They will end up in prison. We need to be sure of this. We’re talking about a handful of criminals and an organised crime ring. They’re not superheroes and they are also opportunistic fuckwits who are all heavily compromised. What will be harder will be what to do with the zealots who carried out the programme (medical staff, police, politicians etc). That’s why serving them with notices of liability are a good idea at this point.
So what do we do? The government and its agencies are corrupt, the police are corrupt, the NHS is frankly evil, local councils corrupt, schools’ leadership incapable of independent thought, and the vast majority of the population easily manipulated and ignorant. Basically Britain has been undermined, invaded and taken over while we weren’t looking.
I want my country back, I want to know who runs this place, and I want restoration of honour, integrity and honesty at all levels of local and national government. I want the state out of every day family life. I don’t want to have to spend the rest of my life keeping my family sufficiently under the radar to avoid the worst of the insanity, it’s hard work and expensive.
Very well said. Only 4 upticks? I wanted to give you 4000.
We can issue anyone we know who is in authority and involved with this crime against humanity with a notice of liability. Templates available online. It’s free, it forces them to acknowledge their criminality and it might make them open their eyes. And when the reckoning finally comes, which it will, it makes them culpable and unable to argue that they weren’t aware of the harm they were doing.
What worries me is that my (as yet unborn) grandchildren will suffer the effects of this. I don’t want my kids having babies with partners with mutant sperm and eggs. I have a friend who is actively hunting a sperm donor who hasn’t been jabbed because sperm and egg banks are reporting barren donors or unviable eggs being harvested from previously fertile and productive women.
Childlessness is already so heartbreaking. Miscarriages are incredibly distressing. You only have to look at the havoc being wreaked by long-life biocides, and forever plastics on the next generation. We don’t need this as well. So what will my kids do for partners? Will they be married to mutants, whilst getting pregnant by the “pure”. Are we heading for Handmaids Tale territory now?
Are those reports from fertility clinics real? Do they check out?
Yes, is this since vaccination or as a result of generally falling fertility rates?
I’ve only just started watching The Handmaid’s Tale. What I previously dismissed as a ridiculous storyline, I now see as chillingly possible, at least some aspects, if extreme by current standards. Who would have thought 18 months ago that we would be living in this dystopian shitshow.
And yet its author, Margaret Atwood, has been supportive of the dangerous deadly superspreading schools narrative being pushed by those who wanted to keep schools closed in Canada. An example of how someone can colourfully imagine how bad things could potentially become, yet not perceive how bad they are actually becoming when those making things bad are not perceived as the baddies.
Yes, and every other dystopian novel you can think of. Can’t help feeling we’re being set against each other; first the elites fund divisive protest movements, then society is set against each other like this i.e vaxxed vs unvaxxed. Divide and conquer a very time honoured strategy.
“COVID Vaccine Injury Reports Among 12- to 17-Year-Olds More Than Triple in 1 Week, VAERS Data Show. This week’s data included 58 reports of serious adverse events in the 12- to -17-year-old age group.Youngest deaths reported include two 15-year-olds (VAERS I.D. 1187918 and 1242573 ) and a 16-year-old (VAERS I.D. 1225942).
Oh yeah, why not???
Theyre dialling up cases as we speak. Prepare for delay
This is Child Abuse – plain and simple — Why would and parent have this done to their child – It beggars belief
We tolerated lockdown, our children were next.
Fascinating how the vaccine has a pseudo religious subtext. It seems to pose the question “are you in or out?” It makes sense that parents who have joined the cult would want their children baptised into the new normal. We, as non-cult members, have a duty to protect children from their cult member parents just as much as from the state. The reckoning at the end of all this will be truly dreadful, but much worse for them than for us I think.
“….vaccine deployment programme.” Does this not say it all?
If you haven’t done so already, get your sig on this letter…

How can the benefits outweigh the risks when there is virtually no risk to kids under the age of 20 from Covid? I’m in Canada and the number of deaths under 20 is…wait for it…11. That’s in a year. The problem everyone is stuck on is this so-called “asymptomatic” transmission. I’m sure that is what they are weighing it against – kids giving it to their grandparents who do have way worse outcomes. That being said, there are studies showing that kids rarely, if at all, transmit the virus so really, there is no benefit to vaccinating kids against Covid.
They very carefully didn’t say that the benefits to the children outweigh the risks.
To quote Dr. John Lee: ” asymptomatic used to be called immune”.
Lets remind ourselves of a little networking shall we..
If a group of illegal migrants to our shores can successfully sue our vile government for being placed in “inadequate” housing using taxpayers money through legal aid, no doubt costing millions, what is to stop a group of parents seeking human rights for their children not to be vaccinated by a novel gene therapy vaccine that doesn’t conclude it’s testing until 2023 and which has severe side effects including death?
This could affect millions of our children so surely legal aid could be considered.
That doesn’t benefit the establishment through enhanced rents and subdued wages therefore it won’t be a “proper” entitlement.
Children are the state’s owners (that’s not you) future cattle, so you dont get to choose.
They do NOT know the benefits, they do NOT know the negatives, this is a trial for many years
The Non Liability Clause must have helped their decision
There comes a point, where things go too far, and the sheep will wake up properly, this could be it for the majority.
If you’ve jabbed, why wouldn’t you have your kids jabbed? Most people I know who’ve been jabbed seem to believe it’s perfectly safe so I don’t think they’d have qualms about giving it to their kids.
Well, hopefully not, just read quite a few comments saying I’ve had the jab but stay away from my kids, that they are not in danger, time will tell
Well if that’s the case then that’s a small piece of encouragement.
Yes, I stumbled across a covid vaccine zealot Twitter thread the other day and was shocked at the people wanting to get their children vaccinated as they were so fearful for them. A lot of the talk was about kids contributing to variants, but if they don’t get sick, they won’t be infectious so won’t be passing on to others, so no variants.
I can hide away as I am retired but what will happen if schools put pressure on to have children vaccinated so they can attend school? Very hard for parents.
I don’t know how we here don’t feel this same fear of covid. I begin to feel it is me that is the odd one out. Being very sure I had covid in March 2019 I do not want a vaccine, and I don’t feel I am at any risk but 3 letters, 3 phone calls and 4 texts later I feel under so much pressure to be “a normal person” like all the other millions.
Stay strong. I long to get a phone call from them. They can phone me daily, the conversation will be cathartic for me.
I don’t agree. I think the wake up stage will happen well after all the problems with the vaccines manifest even in kids. At first there will be an attempt to deny the problem and blame the victims. Only after substantial misery will it change.
The eventual side-effects and deaths will most likely be blamed on another Chinese bioweapon. After all, the symptoms will be very similar to one another.
Should also add that this would lead them on to justify more jabs – a terrible vicious cycle.
I doubt it.
Many believe children should be vaccinated.
My friend, a TA thinks the jab thing for kids should wait until there is a nasal spray. I hadn’t realised this but apparently the kids are all given a flu ‘spray’ every year, and she equates the experimental gene therapy with the conventional flu vaccine. Nothing will change her mind. She also believes all children are superspreaders, and for that reason alone is more than happy to have this happen to them.
She is a well-educated, middle class woman who, up to now I’ve always thought of as intelligent.
I fully expect my sister will usher her son into the jab queue as soon as his age group comes up.
We’re dealing with a new global religion. People who never thought of themselves as being the “spiritual sort” never thought they’d find themselves bashing their faces with covid manuals in the streets while chanting stuff about staying safe. They really are experiencing something akin to psychosis.
More like myxomatosis…
I just got immediately censored on the Spectator for pointing out that injecting us with experimental gene therapies has never been about protecting our health or restoring our freedoms.
truth hurts
Truth is illegal at Airstrip One.
I’ve been over there posting like mad, just to make up for your censorship.
I’m getting very confrontational with one or two, mostly because they’re following the government line. 😁
Ditto!
Ouch! You must have used a ‘trigger’ word & upset the bots…
