Health Canada authorizes Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine for children aged 12 to 15 | FULL

Health Canada is authorizing the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine for adolescents aged 12 to 15, meaning that the jab is now approved for anyone over the age of 12 in Canada.

During the press briefing on Tuesday, Health Canada's chief medical advisor Dr. Supriya Sharma said the vaccine was "safe and effective" for the younger age group, and that during clinical trials, the efficacy rate was 100 per cent.

Until now, the jab had only been approved for Canadians over the age of 16.

The Health Canada approval comes with some strings attached. Like all other vaccine approvals that were made under interim orders, Pfizer-BioNTech has to keep Health Canada up to date with “additional information” on the vaccine’s “safety efficacy and quality” to make sure the benefits continue to outweigh the risks.

The announcement comes after the drugmakers said their vaccine was found to be safe, effective and produced robust antibody responses in 12 to 15-year-olds in a clinical trial late last month.

Doesn't anyone find it odd that they are vaccinating people according to demographics.

Severe cases of covid among children is so rare. So why???

[ruth]

They want to start vaccinating our babies at 2 years old!
Our Father in Heaven hear my prayer for people all over the world to reject this for their babies!
Please have these people hear Your Words Oh Lord that this is man and a government that does not have the best interests of the people of the world!
Thank you Father! Thank you Jesus Christ!

Believe what Jesus Christ did for you on the cross of Calvary and be saved - *1Corinthians 15:1-4* - _Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, was buried and third day He rose from the death_

The seven years of tribulation is casting it's shadow upon the nations and it will be horrific time as never before. Believe and be saved!

Your good works can't save you.
Being a good person can't save you - you can't save yourself. That's why you need a Savior, and that is Jesus Christ. He gave his life for you - you are precious to him and He loves you. Ask him for forgiveness and He will forgive you - *1John 1:9* - _If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness._

Shalom, God bless you ❤️

Can they hire better reporters? Same question over and over. Are they even listening to the reporters questions before theirs? Or do they just sit there waiting to talk?

[lukelausk]

reporters shall really stop asking the same question over and over... and over again while knowingly the same answer will be given...

People should seek protection from God The Creator Only, not shady corporations.
