Children in the UK could start getting the Covid vaccine from August, much earlier than expected. Ministers are awaiting safety data on a child vaccine study before making their final decisions. The Telegraph has the story.
Children will start getting the Covid vaccine as early as August under provisional Government plans to push for maximum immunity from the virus, the Telegraph can reveal.
Two sources involved in preparations said that was the soonest point at which Britons under the age of 18 would be given the jabs – months earlier than expected.
Safety data on the critical child vaccine study being run by Oxford University – on which ministers are waiting before making their final decisions – is expected shortly, with its conclusions due in June or July.
Israel, the country with the highest proportion of vaccinated citizens, is already giving jabs to 16 and 17-year-olds after deeming it safe.
The plan is not without its opposers, but its supporters are likely to receive much more of a hearing.
Supporters of the plan see the mass vaccination of children as a way to minimise the spread of infection, but critics note the relatively low risk Covid poses to youngsters and the still-emerging safety data.
If the current rate of roughly three million first doses a week is handed out in August, it is possible that most of the 11 million school-age children could be vaccinated before the autumn term.
A Department of Health and Social Care spokesman said “no decisions have been made on whether children should be offered vaccinations”.
Oxford University’s ongoing child vaccine study is testing the AstraZeneca jab on 300 children aged six to 17. It is currently expected that parents will have to give consent for their children to be vaccinated but how inconceivable is it that no choice will be granted on the matter, given that the Government hopes to make vaccination mandatory for care home staff (as a start)?
Exemptions are expected if a rollout to children is given the final sign-off. It is also likely that parents would have to give consent – currently the position for teenagers in Israel.
Some are already demanding that vaccination should be mandatory for children, including Sean O’Grady, the Associate Editor of the Independent.
I would vaccinate every child old enough to receive it, as a condition of receiving a state education. …
Given the fact that we are still nowhere near herd immunity for the current coronavirus variants, and await with trepidation new – and potentially even more deadly – mutations; this is a moment for determined action. …
Of course, in the end, we do not want to live in a country where gangs of officials grab unvaccinated children or adults, wrestle them to the ground and forcibly inject them. But we do want to live in a country where rights are balanced by responsibilities, and where mutual obligations need to be fulfilled.
Incentives and penalties, taxes and fines, court orders and conditions of employment – restrictions on liberty – are commonplace in our daily lives; for the protection of the community as a whole. If we want to drive the wrong way down a motorway, then there are legal consequences for doing so.
The Telegraph’s report is worth reading in full.
Stop Press: The Prime Minister has likely ruffled the feathers of some EU leaders by declaring that “the reason we have the vaccine success is because of capitalism, because of greed my friends”. The Sun has the story.
Boris has spent days trying to dial down the rhetoric and pleading with European leaders to abandon their threat to slap an export ban on vaccines.
But he risked reigniting tensions with the continent last night as he boasted about how Britain stole the march.
He told MPs at the 1922 Committee: “The reason we have the vaccine success is because of capitalism, because of greed my friends.”
He later added: “Actually I regret saying it.”

Good 2min video from my favourite Dutch MP;
”Roos has called for insect-based food products to have clear labeling, with the normal name of the insect listed in plain language and an icon on the package to alert consumers that the product contains insects. He believes this will prevent anyone from accidentally consuming insects if they are unable or unwilling to do so.”
https://rairfoundation.com/dutch-mep-demands-insects-in-food-are-clearly-marked-and-no-longer-hidden-video/
Why not imitate the fag packets and have a photo of the bug itself? Nice juicy mealworms in close-up should certainly tickle the taste buds.
It has always puzzled me why the vegans and vegetarians have made no comment on this. They of all people should demand labelling to avoid it.
I checked on the Food Standards Authority website in the UK – insects not currently listed, so I contacted Trading Standards (who contacted Food Standards) and got this reply:
“Please see our combined response ….. :
‘The FSA has undertaken specific work to assess potential food safety risks arising from edible insect products. In May 2022, a generalised risk assessment was conducted by the FSA and Food Standards Scotland (FSS) and found that the safety risks associated with edible insect products are likely to be low, provided the appropriate measures are in place (i.e., labelling on potential allergy risks).
It is a statutory requirement that all relevant edible insects need to undergo a robust safety assessment stage as part of the novel food’s authorisation process. If we find credible evidence to say that edible insects could be unsafe, we will not authorise them; and local authorities, who are responsible for enforcing food law, have the power to remove them from sale.
Under food law all ingredients must be clearly labelled including edible insects. The FSA encourages food businesses to follow relevant industry guidance and good practice to appropriately label their products. Food law requires that any labelling provided must be accurate and not be misleading to consumers. However, it is possible to add specific labelling requirements, over and above food law, as part of the authorisation process if required. We will continue to consider these as the individual assessment of each application progresses.
I do hope this explanation is helpful in relation to your concerns.
You might also find our risk assessment on consumption of edible insects a useful reference:https://www.food.gov.uk/research/novel-and-non-traditional-foods-additives-and-processes/rapid-risk-assessment-what-is-the-risk-to-consumers-from-consumption-of-the-seven-edible-insects-products-currently-available-in’ ”
If you want to contact the FSA directly the email address is helpline@food.gov.uk
I also asked about the new law on genetic foods and ‘precision technology’ (on the grounds that gut biome/allergy studies have not been undetaken) but was directed towards DEFRA – haven’t done that yet. defra.helpline@defra.gov.uk
Many thanks for undertaking this chore and posting the response.
Watch this EMA Director blatantly lie about how long the mRNA stays in the body. She’s dithering enough so you can tell a lie is coming a mile away.

This is contradicted completely by the scientific literature which tells a very different story;
”Fertig et al found lipid nanoparticles with mRNA were measurable in plasma for—15 days. Recently, Castruita et al demonstrated mRNA in blood out to 28 days. Roltgen et al have found mRNA in lymph nodes 60 days after injection. None of these studies demonstrated complete clearance of mRNA from a group of patients. This is worrisome since injections are recommended in some populations just a few months apart implying there will be stacking of long-lasting mRNA in the body without adequate opportunity for clearance and elimination.”

I think this substacker ( Psychiatrist ) nails it;
”Dr Mike Yeadon quite flatly states that he does not believe there was ever a covid virus, while Igor Chudov clearly states that Sars-Cov-2 was a deliberately engineered pathogen. Citing the work of Ralph Baric, Chudov concludes that ‘high pathogenicity is not necessary for a perfect bioweapon: instead, what is important is that the bioweapon creates fear.’
Thus we have two widely diverging opinions from two quite respectable and diligent people.
In fact, we also have a plethora of different opinions from other respectable and diligent people about the jab, the jab’s contents, about covid variants and even the very existence of viruses. Was the pandemic a statistical rather than medical phenomenon created by dubious PCR testing, was it merely a mislabeled flu? And on and on.
If you are not confused, you should be, because creating confusion is a hallmark of every successful operation to control the masses, and the perfect biopsychosocial operation will create confusion in spades. It’s not a matter of covering tracks to make an investigation into the origins or other parts of an operation impossible – it’s a matter of deliberately creating many tracks, tracks that run in various directions and lead to questionable conclusions.”

Related to this is the Part 2 of immunology from JJ Couey presentation he gave yesterday evening. He clearly explains how a “pandemic” could be created using sleight of hand & dodgy testing to create the crime scene which we are witnessing. He cuts through the above argument with evidence stating that both of those positions are wrong.
Explains natural immunity clearly &, for such a complex subject, simply to enable one to understand how stimulating the production of serum level antibodies via injection is just so wrong on so many levels.
JJ Couey’s presentation is well worth the investment of time.
Part 1 can be viewed here & Part 2 will be posted here shortly:
https://rumble.com/user/cbkovess
I watched most of Part 1 but gave up because he’s a piss-poor presenter/ speaker.
He seems to believe that the “high” death toll was essentially created through a combination of (1) getting deaths up through neglect and mistreatment and (2) miscategorisation. But I’ve known that the pandemic was a lie since the rules were changed to make it very much easier to categorise deaths as being caused by Covid and the government then began terrifying people, so why has it taken him so long?
If he thinks Yeadon is wrong about Covid not existing, Chudov wrong about it being designed, mustn’t that mean he believes it exists but is natural? But then why was it necessary for governments to wait for a new but trivial coronavirus to come into existence before hatching their plans?
JJ wouldn’t argue with your analysis of his speaking/presentation abilities as he himself says that he’s not a natural at this. He’s held this opinion from the start & lost his job because he spoke up from the start of it all in 2020, so he’s not late to the party.
His argument is that the no virus argument does not explain the whole issue. SARS-CoV-2 is synthetic, it has been sequenced & made into a reproducible format. It’s more nuanced than an either or scenario which is what the media narrative is.
JJ Couey’s applied his knowledge of biological immunity to the covid situation to expose the lies we’ve been told.
And why did the ordinary ‘flu disappear?
It’s worth persevering with JJ’s analysis because he explains why he believes the biology underlying RNA virology, immunity and vaccines has been corrupted. He argues that RNA particles, described by virologists as “viruses” can’t replicate without making mistakes, hence don’t have ability to produce sufficient exact copies of themselves to cause pandemics. He has various theories about how the apparent Covid pandemic occurred, including initial release of lab created infectious clones of the so-called Covid virus, existence of background coronaviruses and non-specific PCR test, denial of standard treatment for colds, flu and pneumonia for the vulnerable. When it comes to the mRNA jab he goes into the detail of why tranfection is dangerous. It is hard going and I struggle to understand the biology but I respect JJ for laying it all out and trying to explain his analysis to non-scientists like me.
I think the ‘mass psychosis’ – I can’t call it anything else – also shows the impact of the loss of individual courage/autonomy and critical thinking?
I definitely got an infection like none other in the summer of 2021 – likely picked up at the big northern agricultural show finally ‘allowed’ to run – I was quite poorly with something odd for a few days – but the thing that makes me think it was a ‘new’ bug – AKA likely engineered – is that I lost my taste and smell and have never got it back. In my 68 years that has never happened.
So for me – individually – it was a nasty bug and not one my immune system had encountered before. Something circulated and existed that I suffered from that was real. The likelihood of it having escaped from a lab doing gain of function work is also – IMO – high.
Thanks for your post, which is pretty persuasive in support of the position that this was a new virus and not simply re-badged influenza. And sorry to learn of your loss of taste and smell…
Same for me ! I just posted before reading yours ! There was something going around & it wasn’t normal Flu !
What did I catch in August 21 ? Right on cue a couple of days in my taste & smell went ( & it’s still not what it was ) just like they said it would ! How did they know ?
“Transgender Americans shaping the “nation’s soul”,

This is the most sick statement from a so called leader I’ve ever heard!
So if your trans and you kill 3 Christian adults and 3 children your an American hero?
I’ve always been uninterested in how people live their lives, trans has never crossed my mind, live and let live!
Well since the posies Parker attack and now this inhuman statement my mind is changing to hatred!
they,the trans, are forcing this!
But Biden is not Trans ! It’s being used to crush our old way of life!

A terrific article from Neville Hodgkinson taking apart the C1984 “vaccine” industry. It ends with this para:
“The pharmaceutical companies Moderna and Pfizer have made well over $100billion so far from their Covid vaccines. Tens of thousands of deaths have been reported to regulators in the wake of the jabs, and millions have suffered adverse reactions, but for as long as medical professionals, politicians, journal editors and most of the mainstream media continue to insist the products are ‘safe and effective’, the tragedy continues.”
https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/when-political-correctness-stifles-reporting-a-mass-murder/
A first rate article which lays bare the destruction that so-called political correctness is causing to this country.
“Political correctness is polite lying. Saying something you know is not true, or denying something you know is true, for the sake of politeness. It sounds innocent enough, and is for the most part when individual citizens are conversing amongst themselves, but is one of the most malevolent processes imaginable when adopted and enforced by authorities.”
