Beloved stuffed animals in hand, they lined up at schools, pop-up clinics and children’s hospitals to do something that little kids generally hate to do: get a shot. COVID vaccinations for 5- to 11-year-olds began in earnest late last week, ramping up over the weekend and early this week.
By the end of the day on Wednesday, about 900,000 elementary school-age children will have gotten their first doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, a White House official shared with NPR in advance of an announcement expected later in the day.
That represents about 3% of children ages 5 to 11. About 700,000 more have appointments scheduled in the days ahead at pharmacies like CVS and Walgreens.
“This does not include appointments being made, for example, at places like pediatricians’ offices, children hospitals and other sites,” the official said.
For the White House, this is an early and encouraging sign in the effort to vaccinate 5- to 11-year-olds, though it is impossible to tell from these initial numbers whether vaccinations will continue apace or hit a plateau of hesitancy as has happened with other age groups. Unlike previous expansions of vaccine availability, the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for these younger children comes in a smaller dose with different packaging and smaller needles.
Vaccines for this age group couldn’t be packaged and shipped until the Food and Drug Administration gave emergency use authorization on Oct. 29, and it’s been a dash ever since.
To rapidly reach this new population, the official says Minnesota has set up 1,100 vaccination sites including one at the Mall of America at which 1,500 children can be vaccinated a day. Children’s hospitals have set up family-friendly events with pets, stuffed animals and adults in costume. New York City has more than 1,000 clinics planned in schools, with flexible hours.
Because it is a new program, comparisons are imperfect. A week after authorization of vaccines for 12- to 15-year-olds, a larger share of the eligible population had gotten their first dose than 5- to 11-year-olds so far. But adolescents were getting the same vaccine doses already widely available to adults in pharmacies and doctor’s offices all over the country, so there was no ramp-up time needed.
A recent Kaiser Family Foundation poll found that only 27% of parents planned to rush right out and get their 5- to 11-year-olds vaccinated for COVID-19. A full 30% said they definitely would not get their children vaccinated. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy has raised alarms about misinformation, pleading with parents to do their research using reliable sources and to talk to their children’s pediatricians if they have questions.
Some parents have complained about having trouble finding appointments. Still, over the weekend, social media was flooded with pictures of masked children sporting brightly colored band-aids.
“And it’s going to give millions of American parents peace of mind,” President Biden said at a virtual political fundraiser Tuesday night, touting the newly available vaccines for children.
First lady Jill Biden is expected to travel across the country in the coming weeks, visiting schools and making direct appeals to parents to protect their children through vaccination.
The secretaries of education and health and human services earlier this week sent letters to school leaders, encouraging them to set up vaccine clinics on campuses, to distribute high-quality information about the vaccines to students’ families and to hold Q-and-A sessions for parents with local pediatricians. The letter also flagged that there is money in the American Rescue Plan passed by Congress earlier this year to help fund these efforts.
If enough parents vaccinate their children, it could go a long way to restoring normalcy for elementary schools. Many have had to put students on “pause” after close contact with an infected classmate, disrupting in-person learning. Some school districts have even had to shut down entirely for a week or more to try to break the chain of infection.

Oh PLEASE FOLKS, DO YOUR$ RESEARCH! Out of 700.000 who died from covid, 80% were fully vaccinated! Children are DYING from heart problems! POLITICIANS DON’T HAVE THE RIGHT TO COMMAND, PUSH and SHOVE THEIR CRAP ONTO YOU, FOR MONETARY GAINS! It’s ALL ABOUT MONEY, AND COMMAND, COERCE, and CONTROL! OPEN YOUR EYES!!!!!!!
I wouldn’t even consider injecting that crap into my system much less my child’s. Now the word is the vaccine doesn’t protect and the numbers are dwindling over time on the coverage. No way will I inject that poison continually!
F Joe Biden and his administration!
I 100% agree. The demoncrats are doing the vaccine for their own good. Money and control. They still do not understand that we the People are the Boss. Not the government. They are pushing for socialism. If we do not already have socialism.
Poor kids..that vaccine will attack their organs and they will never reach adulthood..since their immune system is gone..the hydra..will over take them …very sad people don’t research things and they believe evil men out of fear and condemn those who try to warn them as the evil news covers up truth
Survival Rates By Age Group per the CDC:

-“The company’s second-quarter financial results also beat Wall Street expectations on both earnings and revenue.”
-5/21/21 -“Covid-19 vaccines” have created at least nine new billionaires after shares in companies producing the shots soared.”
-“Topping the list of new billionaires are Moderna (MRNA) CEO Stéphane Bancel and Ugur Sahin, the CEO of BioNTech (BNTX), which has produced a vaccine* with Pfizer (PFE).

-“Senior executives from China’s CanSino Biologics and early investors in Moderna have also become billionaires on paper as shares skyrocketed, partly in expectation of profits earned from Covid vaccines*, which also bode well for the companies’ future prospects.

-“Moderna’s share price has gained more than 700% since February 2020, while BioNTech has surged 600%. CanSino Biologics’ stock is up about 440% over the same period. The company’s single-dose Covid-19 vaccine* was approved for use in China in February.”

*11/09/2021 -Changing definitions during 2020 and 2021 is not a new phenomenon. NIAID director Dr. Anthony Fauci and the WHO have changed the definition of herd immunity.

-“For example, in October 2020, the World Health Organization changed their definition of herd immunity. In the past, herd immunity meant when enough people had acquired immunity to an infectious disease that the disease no longer spread widely in the community.

-“Courtesy of the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine, before October 2020, the WHO’s definition of herd immunity included both vaccine immunity and “immunity developed through previous infection.”
-“However, in October 2020, the updated definition dropped natural immunity and is now:
“‘Herd immunity’, also known as ‘population immunity’, is a concept used for vaccination, in which a population can be protected from a certain virus if a threshold of vaccination is reached.”
-“And, to add insult to injury, they add, “Herd immunity is achieved by protecting people from a virus, not by exposing them to it,” totally ignoring the billions of people who have been infected naturally with measles, mumps, chicken pox and other infectious diseases, and who now have lifelong immunity to those diseases thanks to their natural infection, as opposed to vaccines that wane and need regular boosters.”
-Injection manufacturers are laughing all the way to the bank… and if thousands of innocent children are murdered along the way, they don’t care.
I love when sites beg you to leave a comment.
And then when you do, they don’t publish it.
Yes! Like Murthy said, “Do your research”! Kids don’t need this experimental “vaccine”! There are no studies showing long term effects in adults let alone children. Children, with no underlying conditions, just don’t die from covid. There have been cases in the US and abroad of kids dying or getting seriously ill from the vax. The vax does NOT prevent infection. The vax also “wears off” in about 6 months time. Don’t allow your kids to be guinea pigs!!!
Injection Murderers find Great way to become Billionaires on unnecessary and deadly product:

-0-19: 99.997%

-50-69: 99.5%

-Hardly a “pandemic”.
-“11/08/21 – “In an interview, Dr. Meryl Nass, an internist specializing in toxicology, vaccine-induced illnesses and Gulf War illness, shares her insights into the dangers of the COVID jab, which received an emergency use authorization October 26, 2021, for children as young as 5.
-“As mentioned, the FDA recently authorized the EUA COVID jab for children between the ages of 5 and 11, which is simply appalling, considering they are at virtually no risk from COVID-19. I’ve not seen a single recorded case in the entire world of anyone in that age group dying of COVID that didn’t have a serious preexisting comorbidity, such as cancer.”
-Since Covid-19 has been around since at least November 2019 (at least 2 years). And by now everyone in the world has been exposed to Covid-19.
-Yet children are “virtually no risk from Covid-19”, “not a single recorded case in the entire world of anyone in that age group dying of Covid-19 that didn’t have a serious preexisting comorbidity, such as cancer,”.
-Then what could possibly be the REASON for the push to inject children? Children who do not need the contents of the shot, but take all the risk of side effects?
-I will tell you, GREED.
A LOT of misinformed, gullible people are putting their kids in MAJOR danger!
I’ll bet you won’t hear from the DEMONICrat media. FYI out of 700.000 deaths from covid, 80% died AFTER this crap! Good luck parents!!!

-Conducting EXPERIMENTS on unsuspecting people is a violation of the Nuremberg Code. How can people give consent, when information about side effects is suppressed. This alone makes injections ILLEGAL.
-But to conduct EXPERIMENTS on children, not yet of LEGAL AGE, who can not give Consent, is ILLEGAL and IMMORAL.
