Taiwan Suspends Second Round of Pfizer COVID Vaccines for Children Due to Heart Problems

Taiwanese officials announced on Wednesday they will suspend second doses of the Pfizer vaccine to teens due to the risk of myocarditis and pericarditis.

Taiwan officials made the decision after examining US data where teens are still encouraged to take the shot.

Taiwan News and Alex Berenson reported:

Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) head Chen Shih-chung (陳時中) said on Wednesday (Nov. 10) that a panel of experts has decided to suspend administering second doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech (BNT) COVID vaccine to children 12-17 years old amid concerns it may increase the risk of myocarditis.

Cases of myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) and pericarditis (inflammation of the outer lining of the heart) have been reported after BNT vaccination of children between 12 and 17 years of age. According to U.S. statistics, the risk of youths experiencing myocarditis after receiving the second BNT dose is 10 times higher than after the first dose, CNA reported.

Some countries have adjusted their policies regarding administering COVID-19 vaccines to adolescents. For instance, Hong Kong has changed from two doses of BNT to only a single dose for those aged 12-17. The U.K. has done something similar, recommending only one shot for children between 12 and 18 years of age, per CNA.

The Pfizer vaccine in linked to roughly 75% of the US mycarditis cases reported.

 

Most of the myocarditis cases reported in the US after taking the vaccine were in teens.

Senior NIH Doctor Pushes Back on COVID-19 Vaccine Mandates: Top infectious disease doctor runs a clinical studies unit within the NIAID - Headed by Fauci!

Dr. Matthew Memoli had told Fauci in a July 30 email that he believes “the way we are using the vaccines is wrong,” adding that mandated vaccines are “extraordinarily problematic,” according to the WSJ.

In comments to the paper, Memoli said that he supports COVID-19 vaccination in high-risk groups including obese people and the elderly.

However, widespread vaccinations for people who have a low risk of death or severe illness from COVID-19 could hamper the U.S. population’s ability to develop more robust protection against the virus via previous infections, he said.

Kids at risk for heart failure? It’s the new Normal.

Someone found a way to stop the killin’.

So Taiwan looked at the same data the US did and realized the risk and stopped the jabs. Looks looks like Pfizer never mailed the them the checks.

Well, it is too late for an abortion……

The left, in its bloodlust for death, has to find some other way to kill.

Which begs the question.

wouldn’t those people in high risk groups for Covid also be the ones to be high risk for side effects from the vax?

The same thing that makes them susceptible to the virus would theoretically make them also susceptible to side effects.

Is Taiwan anti-science?

“ Taiwan officials made the decision after examining US data where teens are still encouraged to take the shot.”

Good idea. Whatever Dr Fubar says - do the opposite 🤪

“Previous Infections”
AKA
NATURAL IMMUNITY.
.
I get it Now.

Now you have cracked another code:

Wouldn’t those people in high risk groups for Covid also be the ones to be considered high risk for side effects from the vax?

In particular, those who have been or are being treated with steroids. Also, anyone with a cardiac condition or pulmonary condition could be vulnerable, particularly those with cardiac conditions that can put them in a bad situation.

RE: Is Taiwan anti-science?

Taiwan just developed their own Covid vaccine — ‘Medigen’ it’s called.

Like these young and healthy athletes and students?

Keep it going in the US, you BIGOTS, because:
a) our kids’ cardiac biology is different than those in Taiwan
b) otherwise they will kill US grandparents, whose biology is different than those in Taiwan

Good question.

Looking at the reports, and looking at the graph in this report, I'm thinking the answer is no.

Keep your head down. Wrong think like that could get you a visit by Merrick Garland’s thugs.

The problem is, trusting the stats.

If they don’t want to find a connection between the vaxxes and health problems, they won’t. And they will try to discredit anyone who does independent work.
