COMMENTARY: Is the COVID-19 vaccine safe for children? There’s a lot to consider
Even with new COVID-19 vaccine approvals, rollout won’t increase before April In pediatrics, we are often asked what’s the definition of a child. Well, since Pfizer trials have included people 16 years and older, then for these purposes we are really looking at birth to 15 years.Should we really be vaccinating our children if the disease has very little adverse consequences for their age group? Historically, we have immunized against diseases like polio and diphtheria that were a clear danger to children.The same cannot be said for SARS-CoV-2 — symptoms are mostly mild, which is leading to a suspicion that we have failed to identify many active cases.

Fauci responded, "You know, it very likely did."Fauci, who was sidelined by Trump, is now the chief medical adviser to President Joe Biden in an ambitious effort to conquer the virus.
