Sweden suspends Moderna for those under 30 and Denmark suspends it for those under 18 due to number of vaccine-related myocarditis cases. 

 

Unfortunately, once myocarditis occurs or is found, it is usually permanent.

What a shame.  I think it is medical malpractice to force the "vaccine" on children.

Maybe something worse than just malpractice. 

In other news, Canada now mandates those over 12 get the "vaccine" to travel on trains and planes.

A Moderna spokesperson said in an email the company was aware of the decisions by regulators in Denmark and Sweden to pause the use of its vaccine in younger individuals because of the rare risk of myocarditis and or pericarditis.

"These are typically mild cases and individuals tend to recover within a short time following standard treatment and rest. The risk of myocarditis is substantially increased for those who contract COVID-19, and vaccination is the best way to protect against this."

According to one U.S. study that has yet to undergo peer review young males under 20 are up to six times more likely to develop myocarditis after contracting COVID-19 than those who have been vaccinated.

Denmark said that, while it used the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine as its main option for people aged 12-17 years, it had decided to pause giving the Moderna vaccine to people below 18 according to a "precautionary principle".

"In the preliminary data ... there is a suspicion of an increased risk of heart inflammation, when vaccinated with Moderna," the Danish Health Authority said in a statement.

It referred to data from a yet unpublished Nordic study, which would now be sent to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for further assessment. Final data was expected within a month, it added.

Sweden and Denmark said they now recommended the Comirnaty vaccine, from Pfizer/BioNTech (PFE.N), instead.

Right, only in America natural immunity is not a part of the equation.  We have it so wrong. 

Just wait until the hundreds of thousands of people from the college football games, who are unmasked, standing next to each other screaming for half of the game start rolling into the ICU’s.  It’s not gonna be pretty.  

I see in some extreme risk cases a 4th shot is available.

I'm all for that in carefully monitored extreme cases (no one should ever need/care about my advice on anything medical). My biggest struggle has been all of the vaccine shaming and things like a vaccine lottery was so odd to me.... all of that coming from someone who is vaccinated!

I am for it too but more than anything I am for choice. 

80% of American adults have had at least one shot of the vaccine.  
 

70% of American adults are fully vaccinated.

History always repeats itself.  This is gonna be fascinating to look back on someday.  The vaccine was very important, the freedom of choice was equally as important.  The history books won’t be short of content for our grandkids to read someday.

It will be interesting what the history books will even teach about it.

Good point!  Hopefully, it’s all allowed to be written as is.  You will see multiple books on it I’m sure.

Both numbers are higher than I expected. 

From Newsmax:

Top U.S. infectious disease official Dr. Anthony Fauci said on Tuesday the vast majority of Americans who have been vaccinated against COVID-19 should receive a booster shot, and that an additional dose could eventually become the country's standard for determining who is fully vaccinated.
