Worries about the impact on children’s health from the side-effects of the novel, gene-based COVID-19 vaccines have escalated with the recent unanimous vote by the U.S. FDA vaccine committee to recommend that the FDA grant an Emergency Use Authorisation (EUA) for Pfizer vaccines in babies and children aged six months to four years. The committee has also recommended the extension of the use of Moderna vaccines to children aged six to 14 years, a jab suspended in Norway for those under 31 years due to serious safety concerns around heart inflammation (myocarditis). If the FDA accepts the recommendation, the rollout could begin in these babies as early as Tuesday August 21st. From the experience of the last 18 months, these regulatory decisions are highly likely to be repeated here in the U.K. in the not-too-distant future.
Closer to home, we have been made aware of a disturbing NHS COVID-19 vaccine advertising campaign that appears to be aimed directly at children aged five to 11 years.
This targeting of young children seriously compromises the fundamental principles of medical ethics and undermines the process of full and informed consent. The adverts, which have been sent to parents of children in a number of primary schools, are promoting COVID-19 vaccine pop-up clinics for primary school-age children. The poster is designed in the style of a children’s party invitation, with cartoon superhero branding, large writing and bright, eye-catching colours. Disturbingly, the invitation is addressed directly to children: “Calling All Superhero Kids.”
For the NHS to be directly targeting young children under 12 to encourage them to take a novel medical treatment and in such a superficial and coercive way is completely unethical and abhorrent. To comply with the laws and ethical codes for informed consent, all medical decisions require a full disclosure of risks, benefits and alternatives to treatment, and an individualised risk-benefit analysis, in a sober discussion between a qualified healthcare professional and the patient, or parent/guardian of a child under 16 (the legal age of consent). ‘Gillick Competence’, where an individual child is deemed intellectually and emotionally mature enough to make a medical decision for him- or herself, is occasionally used for children under 16, although almost never for those under 13, and can only be ascertained after full psychological assessment by a trained professional.
In addition to the laws and professional codes of practice around informed consent, these adverts appear to breach well established Advertising Standards Agency (ASA) rules relating to advertising to children. ASA Advertising Codes contain strict rules to protect children (under 16 year-olds) from potentially misleading, harmful or offensive material. This is because children are less likely than adults to be able to understand or process commercial messages in advertisements and are more susceptible to being subtly manipulated. In general, the younger the child, the more susceptible he or she is. In addition, the Government’s own guidance around advertising medicines states: “You must not… direct your advertising at children (under-16s).”
Potential Breaches of ASA Rules 5.1 and 5.2
5.1 Marketing communications addressed to, targeted directly at or featuring children must contain nothing that is likely to result in physical, mental or moral harm.
In the poster, the use of cartoon action figures, the graphics and the typeface/language chosen are clearly aimed directly at children and not their parents.
The advert is for a medical intervention, yet it does not include any mention of potential risks associated with the COVID-19 injection, which may lead to an inappropriate and harmful medical intervention being accepted without fully informed consent. Although there is a link on the poster to an NHS page for parents of five to 11 year-olds, with more details about COVID-19 vaccine risks and benefits, this is unlikely to be accessed or understood by young children and will not be easily accessible if the poster has been printed out.
5.2 Marketing communications addressed to, targeted directly at or featuring children must not exploit their credulity, loyalty, vulnerability or lack of experience.
The headline “Calling All Superheroes”, with cartoon images of children dressed as superheroes, implies that children who don’t get the vaccine are not superheroes. This messaging is highly coercive and manipulative, exploiting children’s credulity, as they may not have the life-experience and maturity to understand this as a marketing technique and not to be taken literally.
5.2.1 Children must not be made to feel inferior or unpopular for not buying the advertised product.
5.2.2 Children must not be made to feel that they are lacking in courage, duty or loyalty if they do not buy or do not encourage others to buy a product.
The use of cartoon action figures and the reference to “Superheroes” is divisive and may lead to children who don’t get the vaccine feeling inferior or unpopular and to believe that they are lacking in courage, duty and loyalty. It may create peer group pressure on an individual child to accept a medical intervention and may lead to stigmatisation and bullying of unvaccinated children by vaccinated children.
5.2.3 It must be made easy for children to judge the size, characteristics and performance of advertised products and to distinguish between real-life situations and fantasy.
A COVID-19 vaccination is a medical intervention which comes with real and acknowledged risks that are not disclosed on the poster. The characterisation of people who have a COVID-19 vaccine as “Superheroes” undermines the process of making an informed choice to accept a medical treatment by encouraging a child to believe he or she is taking part in superhero game. Younger children may even believe they will become a superhero by having a COVID-19 vaccine because they cannot yet fully distinguish between real-life situations and fantasy.
The way in which the COVID-19 vaccine rollout has been conducted in the U.K. and around the world has been shocking in its failure to adhere to normal ethical practices and by the widespread use of glib marketing, coercion and even bribes. The fact that these unethical psychological and marketing techniques are now being extended in an attempt to influence and persuade our youngest children to take this vaccine shows how far we have strayed as a society from responsible and sober medical practice and from the Hippocratic Oath to “First do no Harm”. It is particularly disappointing to see this kind of material endorsed by the NHS. As a society, we have a duty of care to protect the youngest and most vulnerable in our society from predatory marketing campaigns whatever the product, but particularly for medical treatments and interventions with acknowledged risks.
If you’d like to complain to the Advertising Standards Agency about the adverts you can do so here.

Sad, although the bigger problem is the estimated 15 to 20% of the child population that is obese.
But hey, let’s focus on the important stuff and put masks on all the kids at school to “protect” the grown ups.
Excellent news (for big pharma). Fatter children will result in more future medications, ker-ching.

They are now actually buying profitable companies that make products that combat the injuries caused by their injections. They are doing this right out in the open, and no says a word.

It would have been nice to hear some of these concerned experts raise objections to lockdowns a bit earlier – preferably when they were mooted.
Between covid and carbon, kids today don’t stand a chance.
Why would anyone downvote that comment? What, you think between carbon and covid kids do stand a chance? Got something to say, come out and say it.
BBC propaganda piece
Covid: Cinema & Co flouted ban to show conspiracy film – BBC News
The usual 1984 propoganda from the BBC. Appalling.
Just makes you want to watch it even more.
Children abuse food when they are depressed.
Adults abuse drugs and alcohol when they are depressed.
The UK government has blood on it’s hands.
I don’t abuse drugs neither alcohol although getting locked out of my gym and loosing my motivation to workout I can say that in the last 1 year my back’s health extremely deteriorated.
This is interesting from Reiner Fullmich.
Analysis shows that 1 in 200 batches of the vaccines are absolutely lethal and account for the vast majority of injuries and deaths.
It is almost like the vast majority of the jabs are inert placebos with a small number of highly toxic batches being tested to see how lethal they are but spread out over time so as to make it harder for the public to notice the devstating effects.
https://www.bitchute.com/video/GNUZPESP3rKL/
Hmm, inert placebos eh? I got a private antibody test because I thought I might have had covid (hoped anyway, after a bad fluey cold in November)) I am double jabbed with Pfizer because I fell for the lies (no more jabs for me though). I was negative for covid antibodies, so not only had I NOT had covid, I have no antibodies AT ALL to covid despite 2 jabs. Perhaps I had a lucky escape.
Alternatively, they’re all testing the dose response of these mRNA and DNA genetic vaccines.
Because they have zero liability, why bother with a clinical trial? … just launch it on an unsuspecting public and monitor the deaths and injuries as a function of batch number.
This is soooooo true.
I’m glad you didn’t get fucked up by any of the really nasty stuff.
‘Oh what a tangled web we weave/When first we practice to deceive’
a lot of guilty men got us here
Suicides up, drug usage up, obesity up, alcoholism up, mental health issues through the roof, doctors appointments cancelled, cancer/heart disease patients denied critical care, ten million awaiting treatment, ‘vaccine’ deaths and injuries up 100 fold, athletes collapsing in droves, business closures, high street decimated, mounting long and short term debt, biggest transfer of wealth from poor to billionaires in living memory, non stop government lies and deception……and those responsible will still get voted in at the next election.
And that’s just the start of Agenda 2030.
Recently came across this website showing the effects of ivermectin: https://ivmmeta.com
Welllllllllll,if it ruins just one life!!!
Talking to a member of the family at a family do who works for the local council social services department (I forget what it’s actually called). But she was saying that they are now seeing 2 to 3 youth suicides a week where as it’s usually 5 or 6 youth suicides a year. She said generally it was high achieving males who were committing suicide as they have lost hope.
If suicide is up amongst the youth then eating disorders and other mental health issues must be astronomical. Evil doesn’t describe politicians for what they have done.
This is relevant to me as I was a ‘high achiever’ 50 years ago. Luckily in the 1968-69 flu outbreak, life went on. So I gained my O levels and went on to get A levels and from there went to univ. My life wasn’t ruined.
Can people get documentary evidence on any of these pieces of anecdotal evidence and pass onto lawyer(s)? Reiner Fuellmich stated that he now has lawyers in every country of the world working on this.
Not the pandemic, the relentless assault on the human mind in response to the pandemic.
I would hope the BBC would raise this and all the other lockdown effects whenever they speak to Ferguson
Yep – and that will be the day that I win the lottery (which I don’t ever do)!
Being a parent during this attack has been sad and tremendously difficult. As a sceptic (with friends and family largely on the same page) I have been wondering what would have been worse for ours; parents who absorbed and relayed the state sponsored fear campaign, or ones like us who have been fearful for entirely different reasons. Perfect parenting of course would have involved insulating children from fear entirely but I doubt many parents managed to achieve that. Just another in a long list of appalling crimes committed against us; we must never allow the perpetrators to escape justice.
Once a kid’s got an eating disorder, It’s very hard to very hard to get them back to normal.
Having a child who had an eating disorder, and having worked with addiction charities, I always think there is a clear comparison – in the same way as you’re not an ex-alcoholic, you’re an alcoholic who is in recovery, so you’re never really cured of the eating disorder, you’re just not doing those behaviours at the moment.

Oh, dear me. We vaxxed hard and vaxxed early, yet still govt is stubbornly refusing to join the glaringly obvious dots – well, not publicly at least.
There’s been recent talk from the government about sending goon squads round to people’s homes to persuade them to take the mRNA gene serums – I suppose they have to get something for the fellows they are ferrying across the Channel to do.
Thus, for your own sake and your children’s, I’d advise people to cram-up on Informed Consent.
(I bought a pitch fork in a second-hand/antique shop the other day. If they call round, I just want to confront them in style.)
Keeping people ignorant is just one way in which a tyrannical government subjugates a population.

Does anyone know the IFR for 81 year-olds with two or three co-morbidities?
I have two friends who are paranoid, due to BBC and Grauniad influence, but are still willing to listen to arguments.
She (78) had COVID in Mar. 2020. He’s (81) had nothing; well, except a heart attack 40 years ago and a few lingering co-morbidities.
Both triple-vaccinated *and* masked *and* shielding *and* no doubt ‘sanitising’ the trolley were they to visit Waitrose. But they’ve had food delivered since the very beginning.
See the HSA report COVID-19 vaccine weekly surveillance reports (weeks 39 to 51) – GOV.UK (www.gov.uk) which shows that for 80+ group in the 4 weeks, week 47-50 there were 9,067 ‘cases’, 1,222 hospitalisations, 1,350 deaths. The fact that the deaths are higher than the hospitalisations is a facet of timing & an illustration that most who die are already at deaths door. Still that’s a CFR of 15%.
Of the vaccinated with 2 doses or more its:
Whether this makes them feel any safer or not I have no idea.
They’re not living, they’re just existing.
I agree. IMO it amounts to the government stealing years of their life by terrorising them and convincing them that the disease is deadly to all over 70s.
A friend’s mother (93) accused the government of doing this. She complained to her MP that she wants to live life to the full in the years she has left, maybe 3-5 yrs or so although she’s very fit for her 90s.
BBC R4 is currently lying more than ever about the vaccinated taking up beds.
Here’s the Mailonline, again today, with yet more lying Nazi/Marxist propaganda.
It looks very much like the Cabal and its paid puppets are not going to give up anytime soon.
Hospitals in USA and in first world countries are refusing life-saving Ivermectin treatment even with court orders.

A close friend, who took her own life during lockdown, started this petition. Whether lockdown and the transformation of the National health service into the National Covid service was a factor we will never know but I urge you to read Fiona’s testimony, it is now an appeal from beyond the grave:
https://www.change.org/p/eating-disorders-services-access-to-eating-disorder-treatment-for-all-regardless-of-weight?fbclid=IwAR0EaDrbuUTXYjZiRCGwYM5eYjCRGD9qypj-3hMNHQCh_NSxOwUxsPgDSkA
That’s heartbreaking. So sorry for the loss of your friend.
Eating disorders, just one adverse event of the scaremongering carried out by this government. Anxiety, child abuse, malnutrition, suicide are other results of the horrible mismanagment of the plandemic children.
”Since the pandemic” makes it sound as if the disease caused these problems, rather than the ”rules” and chaos deliberately inflicted upon society through the ”advice” of the behavioural psychopaths.
