Should My Kids Get the Shot?
-
Kids have a 99.997% survival rate from COVID-19.[1]
-
Less than 1% of kids with COVID-19 require hospitalization. [2]
-
There has been no long-term safety testing of COVID-19 vaccines.
-
The CDC says that heart inflammation, blood clots, and Guillain Barré syndrome are known risks of these shots.[3-4]
-
Vaccine manufacturers and the CDC say the shot does not prevent infection or transmission.[5] So, getting your child vaccinated does not protect others.
