World Health Organization backtracks on its COVID-19 vaccine stance, says injections are “low priority” for kids

The World Health Organization (WHO) has backtracked on its stance regarding the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) injections, now claiming that giving children these vaccines is a "low priority."

Steve Watson of Modernity News highlighted this sudden turnaround, noting that anyone who didn't recommend the COVID-19 injections would have been "suspended from social media or publicly 'canceled.'" But given that the global health body was the one that changed its opinion, nobody batted an eyelash.

The WHO's Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization (SAGE) issued the revised guidelines. According to the group, it no longer recommends the COVID-19 injection for "healthy" children aged between six months and 17 years.

"The public health impact of vaccinating healthy children and adolescents is comparatively much lower than the established benefits of traditional essential vaccines for children – such as the rotavirus, measles and pneumococcal conjugate vaccines," SAGE wrote.

Dr. Hanna Nohynek, SAGE chairwoman, explained that the updated guidelines "reflect that much of the population is either vaccinated, previously infected with COVID-19 or both. She continued: "The revised roadmap re-emphasizes the importance of vaccinating those still at risk of severe disease – mostly older adults and those with underlying conditions – including with additional boosters.

The WHO's new policy identifies three priority groups – high, medium and low – with children and teens in the low category. The definitions assess categories for "risk of severe disease and death." Nevertheless, the global health body still recommended that "children who have compromised immune systems or existing health conditions … get the [COVID-19] vaccine."...<<<Read More>>>....
