Following the approval of the use of the Pfizer vaccine in those aged 12-15 by the U.K. medicines regulator, school leaders have called on the Government to vaccinate schoolchildren against Covid before the start of the summer holidays. Their hope is that pupils will be fully vaccinated before returning to the classroom in September. The MailOnline has the story.
Ministers have asked the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) whether to give the jab to teenagers – the current rollout is set to stop at age 18 except for children with serious health conditions.
The JCVI – which normally rules who should get a vaccine – is expected to tell Number 10 that jabbing children is a “political” decision and will leave the ball in ministers’ court.
Teaching unions and school leaders today said starting vaccinating children soon could ensure they have had both jabs by the time they start the school year in September.
But vaccinating children against the virus is a controversial issue because youngsters only have a tiny risk of getting seriously ill and their immunity would likely only protect older adults.
More than 100 cross-party MPs and the World Health Organisation have said the priority should be to get vaccine doses abroad to poorer countries where vulnerable people still haven’t been jabbed before giving them to low-risk children.
Hamid Patel, Chief Executive of the Star Academies school trust based in Blackburn – the area of the country with the most cases of the Covid Indian variant – said schoolchildren should be vaccinated as a matter of priority.
He said there would be a much higher uptake if children were given the jab during term time before the school holidays…
And Patrick Roach, General Secretary of the NASUWT teaching union, also urged the JCVI to consider expanding the rollout to teenagers.
He said offering them the vaccine would “protect the wider adult population who are at greater risk from Covid”.
There are “ethical dilemmas” to be considered when it comes to the decision on whether or not to vaccinate children against Covid, an expert has said.
Professor Anthony Harnden, Deputy Chairman of the JCVI, said while a “very small minority” of children have been severely affected by the virus, children “in the main” do not get severe illness.
He told BBC Breakfast: “I think the vast majority of benefit won’t be to children, it will be an indirect benefit to adults in terms of preventing transmission and protecting adults who haven’t been immunised, for whatever reason haven’t responded to the vaccine and therefore that presents quite a lot of ethical dilemmas as to whether you should vaccinate children to protect adults.”
He added: “We need to be absolutely sure that the benefits to them (children) and potentially to society far outweigh any risks.”

Sadly we are talking in a echo chamber. The majority of the public believe children are dangerous because they catch a virus and transmission despite the fact the vulnerable are vaccinated and not dying ,Ask any random person how dangerous Covid19 is if a 80 yr old catches it – how likely are they to die / most guess 30-50% plus but in reality it is 5% – they have been frightened-Government has used fear not fact . How do we act?
fuckin shocking but we knew they would when they said they wouldnt,
and im sick and tired of the bullshit .
I agree with all of the above, this is horrendous.
I hate myself for thinking it but if the children are “vaccinated” in school it might be harder to cover up the ensuing deaths and injuries.
Dr McCullough summarises the issues here quite eloquently:
https://t.co/RSq6ckqEXV
So this was easy to prophesy.
Next comes the discovery of a variant which evades vaccines and makes children very ill – that is coming any minute now.
And then the announcement that home schooling must recommence in light of this unless children are vaccinated.
And then come the deaths of and injuries to children. Facebook pages reporting them will be closed down. Will any media outlets report them?
Disgusting, evil, disgraceful there are not enough words to describe the diabolical depths to which this government are taking us and our future. I feel utterly utterly sick.
To use children as a prophylactic is monstrous
Absolute NONSENSE and CRIMINAL.
As I understand it none of these products have been fully licensed, they are allowed for use under a Government emergency waiver, hence the Pharma companies have no liability for any lijuries resulting from the drug.
Children are more in danger of death by lightning than Covid, they also are not spreaders. So the only reason that they are being injected with a trial product is to “protect Adults”. But hang on if the Adult is vaccinated they are protected so why are Children being injected at all?
I wonder how many of these people baying for children to be put at risk in order to save these cowardly adult skins will accept financial liability for coercing children into taking an experimental drug,I further note that Children can die from Flu, many Adults die of flu every year, where was the baying from the selfish and cowardly to force all children to take the flu vaccine?
I just hope that if the unfortunate day arrives when a child is killed or seriously harmed by this drug that these people will be fully held to account,
…and temporary authorisation is only allowed in the absence of known treatments. We know there are effective treatments available but ‘they’ will not recognise them, relentlessly manipulating data and pushing the injections…
kids have already been killed by it. check out vaers in the us.
I am mad.
Professor Anthony Harnden,R.S.O.L.E: “I think the vast majority of benefit won’t be to children, it will be an indirect benefit to adults in terms of preventing transmission and protecting adults who haven’t been immunised, for whatever reason haven’t responded to the vaccine and therefore that presents quite a lot of ethical dilemmas as to whether you should vaccinate children to protect adults.”
I for one do not want any child or younger person (or anyone) to be injected with the shite in a syringe to protect me. I already have inbuilt protection systems that are far superior to any of the concoctions derived from the bowels of big pharma. First is my immune system, second is my bulls**t detector, the latter being overworked since March 2020 but still functioning perfectly.
Another psyops tactic – threaten to inject the kids if all adults don’t succumb – and we know full well even if total adult capitulation was achieved, they will still go after the kids.

It’s been a long time since Western society has protected the defenseless.
Vaccinate them all whether they and/ or their parents like it or not. And why not microchip the little buggers while you’re on and get their DNA on the database? All for their own protection and the benefit of society, of course.
It seems the cull is under full swing. The little ones are the future. They will be injected with something to control their behaviour and their mind. If anyone even thinks there is a conspiracy to depopulate they need to wake up. You do not vaccinate anyone under 70yrs mandatorily for anything. We humans have an immune system that has worked for thousands of years.
The globalists have mismanaged the world economies and need to reset their future. Who suffers??? Those stupid enough to follow a mantra that benefits the globalists and the super rich.
They simply do not care about children do they? The majority of people have literally gone insane. I note that the babbling heads when talking about vaccinating children simply say “The benefits outweigh the risks” but do not supply any information what the benefits or risks are! No bloody way would they be going anywhere near my kids and any parent who even considers allowing this should be jailed for neglect and never be allowed anywhere near a child ever again. It is insane!
We are losing. This is where it turns from opposing views to outright war
We are the most supine, conformist country in the world now so why would we not allow our children to be injected with Johnsons concoction for depopulation.
This is disgraceful. Adults should be protecting the children not expecting the children to “protect” the adults. Do they not think that their experimental jab works? I work in a primary school. The only cases we have had (4) have been caught elsewhere. I despair at the brainwashing that people have succumbed to. All the people who laughed at us marching last week will probably go along with this, but the risk to children far outweighs the benefit. We HAVE to keep fighting this for those who won’t or can’t see the risks, for the sake of the children.
Happy enough to have a GP speak to my children and I and tell us the benefits, short term and long term of the vaccination. If they are show a respectable reduction in risk number I will be happy to consider their generous offer once the 3rd stage clinical trials have been completed. That’s fair enough right ?
I’ve yet to meet anyone who has had a GP explain the above…..plenty of non medical professionals seem to have no problem telling my kids what’s good for them (by them I mean the ones telling not my kids)
The “school leaders,” whoever they are, need to be “terminated with extreme prejudice” as a matter of urgency.
Huge numbers of 12 to 29 year olds taking up the jab offer in Lombardy – 473,237 on 3 June when bookings had just opened for this age bracket. No indication as to how many of this number were 12 to 15 year olds. There was a mystery however. 87 children in the 0-11 age range had booked. Soon cleared up. They were born in June and will turn 12 by the day of their appointment. Talk about eager!
Lambs to the slaughter. Heartbreaking.
Apparently, being a very stupid psychopath and child abuser is now a teaching qualification, and prerequisite for being a “teachers’ leader”.
No surprise, then, that education in England has reached the same nadir as the “Health Service”, both of which would be better described as Assassination Bureaux.
I am utterly appalled at the plan to vaccinate children with a new technology vaccine with only emergency authorisation for a population, children, who do not suffer greatly from covid. But I think we here are in the minority, many seem to see the covid vaccines as just like having MMR or Flu vaccine. They seem to see it as another childhood vaccination as they see it as another travel vaccination.
Every day I feel more shocked at how our authorities are dealing with covid and I don’t know where it will end or how it is going to stop. And with Gilick competence are they going to say parents cannot block their children from having this vaccine because the child is able to decide on their own medical treatment? It’s a terrible terrible position.
The smart move (which they seem to have got away with) is to call it so. It would be more honest to come up with a new term, as it’s not exactly a conventional ‘vaccine’, so a new name would be kind of accurate, rather than manipulating an existing one. However, that would not be popular with the marketing team in the trade, admittedly.
That is the thing that I keep thinking: why are so many people treating experimental, absolutely unproven, unlicenced, untested vaccines as though they were merely having a Measles vaccine? Are they simply incapable of realising that they are the rats in a giant laboratory? Is it really too hard to understand and only Sceptics can figure it out? As Lord Sumption said the other day, Sceptics tend to be more highly educated, is it really as simple as that?
No, I don’t agree. I have spoken to some very educated, seemingly highly intelligent people about this and it is like talking to a brick wall. I have also spoken to those not particularly well-educated and they have reasoned beautifully on the situation.
Yes they are.
I am so glad to see I am not the only one who is absolutely lost for words over this. Trying to make sense of any of the Covid measures is nigh on impossible and we seem to be living in a world of complete and utter thick canutes. Since when have we sacrificed children to save the adults? Adults that in most cases have been jabbed anyway! Either the vaccine fucking works, or it’s a pile of shit. I haven’t been jabbed with their poison and I certainly don’t want anyone else to be jabbed for my benefit. Especially kids. Pat Roach – you need fucking stringing up, you cant.
An unspeakable evil, against which I won’t add here to the many outraged comments already on this thread.
One line of attack. Back in early May, when the jabbing of children was first being seriously suggested, I wrote a long letter to my GP surgery practice manager, laying out the facts that we all on here know only too well, concluding that no responsible medical professional should even contemplate being involved with the administration of this stuff to children.
I had a reply saying she had sent a copy to all the clinical staff.
It may be worth others writing to their own GPs in similar terms. At least it’s trying to do something – that’s how I feel anyway.
If jabbing children gets the go-ahead, then I will write again in even more forthright terms – citing the ‘look him in the eyes’ adverts and turning it back on them. Look that child in the eyes and tell them that it is safe. And then look in the mirror at your own eyes and ask what sort of a doctor or nurse you have become. And as you’re jabbing them look them in the eyes and ask yourself whether… Read more »
I’m sending Notices of Liability to everyone! This is what we all need to be doing – it’s free, legal and is a deadly serious way to make people acknowledge their own criminality under international law.
Good one. Is there a template?
Look it up.
Great point using that horrible emotionally manipulative advert that way. ‘Look that child in the eyes and tell them the vaccination is safe.’ That would make a very effective leaflet to distribute far and wide.
Yes, didn’t one or two contributors on here produce posters at one time – maybe they’ve migrated to the reddit site. Perhaps I’ll post something on there.
but the child will be having the same jab as the adult has had (unless they have developed a different jab for children which I am not aware of). You are therefore telling and adult to question the safety for their child of the very same jab they have had – plenty of parents will say to themselves “I didn’t have a problem with the jab – it was painless – and it will protect my child [from the dreadful killer disease we have had warnings drummed into us over the last 18 months]”
“Teaching union and school leaders today said …” Who? How many have spoken?
He said offering them the vaccine would “protect the wider adult population who are at greater risk from Covid”. Utter bollocks! If the jab works, the jabbed are OK. If, as has been reported, the jabbed shed the virus 6x more than the unjabbed, then this will put the unjabbed more at risk.
The heads of the teaching unions and all head teachers must be served with Notices of Liability as a matter of urgency. I am currently drafting one for my own school (I’m a teacher). This is the only legal means we have at our disposal. It is urgent and must be done now.
Good idea – and well done for following it up!
Professor Dolores Cahill was speaking about these Notices of Liability on ukcolumn.org yesterday. In the first instance, the NoLs will act as frighteners to dissuade would-be perpetrators. That is, as you say, the urgent action. In the second instance, if they do not pay attention, they will be eventually prosecuted.
How does this work, does it need to follow a legal framework? I would appreciate any advice, as I would definitely want to forward this to my children’s schools’.
Perhaps you could share a template with us, crisisgarden, which we could all use?
If school leaders want to do something to benefit chilldren, they should demand the government ringfence the money for the mRNA treatments for children and spend it on child and adolescent mental health services. That’s the areas where there are crises of health and harm.

Thanks for this.
Unions not the slightest bit interested in the safety, happiness, wellbeing of children once again? Now there’s a surprise. When do we riot?
We hold off on the rioting and instead issue all headteachers with Notices of Liability indicating that by allowing children to be injected with unlicensed drugs with known serious side effects on their premises they are committing war crimes and will be held accountable. Everyone needs to do this immediately.
Where do we find templates for the Notices of Liability, please?
.. the unions reported in mainstream media, that is.
Enough is enough with bs made in UK.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
This must be the absolute line in the sand .. I urge everone to do something .. make everyone you know aware of the the dangers involved with what is being suggested .. write / email / social media etc .. your local leaders .. MPs .. doctors .. headmasters schoolteachers .. we must get active in defence of the children .. this must not happen.
https://www.hartgroup.org/open-letter-child-vaccination/
Everyone MUST issue their local headteachers and education authorities with Notices of Liability. This is the only legal means we have at our disposal. I am a teacher and I am currently drafting one for each of my school’s senior leadership team, should they allow this to happen on site. By making them acknowledge their own criminality under international law, we make them culpable; when Nuremberg 2.0 happens, they will not be able to claim that they were just following procedures etc.
a very practical and useful suggestion crisisgarden – could you share the one you draft on here so that others could use it??
This is very interesting as it immediately puts up a barrier and I don’t imagine that the teaching profession will care to ignore it. It may be useful to present to the doctors or those in charge in the event of coercion of adults too since the same principle applies. Anyway, well done crisisgarden. Your posts are very positive and uplifting. A special teacher indeed.
NO!
