• Go through the FDA’s Event Materials.
• Read the Pfizer’s COVID-19 Factsheet for children which contains clinical trial data.

Ten Reasons Why Children Don’t Need COVID-19 Vaccines

My comment to the FDA:

The FDA is making one of the biggest mistakes in American history. COVID-19, a disease primarily dangerous to the elderly and those with multiple underlying conditions, is largely nonexistent in children ages 5-11, even in children with comorbidities. The vaccine does not prevent transmission, and it wanes expediently. Please weigh these inefficiencies in considering this biological product for children, who do not receive any protection from the product, but only stand a chance to be harmed by the product.

Pfizer used deception and lied when it claimed in their Factsheet that ‘COVID-19 was among the top 10 leading causes of death for children 5-14 years between January and May 2021.’ The Truth: During that time 55 deaths fit into that parameter, which represents 2% of that age demographics total mortality for that period of time.

There is not an emergency in children. They are not meaningful modes of transmission. We know this. We have science that supports this. Several studies found that even hospitalizations in children have been overestimated by 40%, and this many hospitalizations were “incidental” and not a true “COVID hospitalization.’

The factsheet Pfizer provided you with has important information you should not ignore: no child developed COVID-19 or MIS-C. No child was hospitalized for COVID. No child died. But more children were harmed by the vaccine. Now, this trial had only 1518 children in the vaccine group. Imagine vaccinating millions of children….what do you think is going to happen?

Out of 1518 children who got the BNT16b2 vaccine, 176 had an adverse event, 46 events were considered related, and 3 were deemed severe.

Because of the vaccine, children developed lymphadenopathy, urticaria, new onset tic disorder, eczema, hypersensitivity, angioedema, paresthesia, worsening neutropenia, a case of Henoch Schoenlein purpura. A surprising number of events were deemed “not related to study intervention” yet how can we know that for sure? Is not this the point of a clinical trial, to properly and without bias explore the safety of medical products, so how exactly can every side effect be not related to study intervention with any confidence, let alone a straight face?

This vaccine will move forward, parents will line up, children with cancer, immune conditions, chronic health conditions who are largely underrepresented in clinical trials will line up for the shot. Pfizer will make more money, and children will be severely harmed by these products, with no recourse but to distrust your judgment.

For every 1 million children vaccinated with this product, the number of adverse events expected based on this clinical trial will be: 115,942 adverse events, 30,303 will be related to study intervention, and 1976 will be severe.

It’s all numbers. More children will be harmed by the vaccine than the virus, and it is all in your hands. Your responsibility. Your problem.

Comment from Danice Hertz MD

I am a physician who had a severe reaction to the Pfizer Covid vaccine starting 30 minutes after I received my first dose. I developed agonizing burning pain and numbness in my face, scalp, tongue, eyes, limbs as well as tinnitus, blurred vision, tremors, twitching, dizziness and imbalance, trouble speaking and thinking, internal vibrations, severe weakness, a very tight constricting band around my chest, chest pains and shortness of breath. I thought I was dying. I have spent the last 10 months trying to survive this unbearable illness, trying to get medical care that doesn’t exist because the medical community knows nothing about these reactions and trying to plead with the FDA, CDC, NIH and Pfizer to acknowledge these reactions, educate the medical community and research what has happened to us and how to treat us. I am part of a group of many thousands who have had similar neurological reactions. We are being completely ignored despite our efforts. We desperately need help.

In addition to these devastating neurological reactions, there are other life threatening reactions to the covid vaccines that involve the heart, kidneys, liver, blood clotting system etc.. There are serious gynecological reactions. We do not yet know the long term health implications that these vaccines may cause.

Now, can you imagine this vaccine reaction happening to a child who will suffer excruciating symptoms and perhaps not survive. This child will have trouble communicating his/her symptoms, trouble coping with the pain, trouble adjusting to the profound changes in his/her life. There will no doubt be serious impact on his/her future life. This is an unimaginable thought. It will happen to many children. Statistically, children have a greater chance of having a severe Covid vaccine reaction than having a severe case of Covid.

Please hear me. One child who is profoundly injured or dies from a Covid vaccine is one child too many. Please hear my words. I know first hand what a devastating impact these vaccines can have on a person’s life.
