> The COVID vaccine showed a positive impact in terms of disease severity and long term impacts.

We are talking about the children's vaccine.

The COVID vaccine showed no efficacy for children, on top of the already practically-nil symptoms that COVID itself had on children.

This is false. Please don’t spread misinformation here. Finally, please consider the possibility that your reasoning skills are not sufficient for the conclusions you’re making.

You are 100% wrong. There is no dispute that the Covid vaccine had no efficacy for children. The data is irrefutable and well documented.

There appears to be quite a bit of dispute.

> Children and adolescents who received one of the main COVID-19 vaccines were significantly protected from the illness and showed no increased signs of cardiac complications compared to young people who were not vaccinated, according to a new real-world study led by researchers from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP). When the Delta variant rose to prominence, the study showed that vaccinated young people were 98 percent less likely to be infected than their unvaccinated peers, and data indicated that the vaccine’s effectiveness decline slightly when the Omicron variant became dominant. The paper was published today in Annals of Internal Medicine.
