> Flanked by Dr. Marty Makary and Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, who lead the Food and Drug Administration and the National Institutes of Health, Mr. Kennedy said in the video announcement that there was no clinical data to support additional shots for healthy children.
> However, pediatricians point out that the youngest infants face among the highest risks for hospitalization, similar to older adults.
> The officials did not offer an explanation for removing the vaccine from the list of shots recommended for pregnant women, focusing instead on children. “It’s common sense and it’s good science,” Dr. Bhattacharya said of removing them.
If there is data there is no mention of it while the article alludes to lots of data existing for the opposite.
It would really be amazing if the FDA led the way on real science: Create as large as possible a sample set of volunteers that are okay with either receiving or not receiving the shot. Randomize them all and run the test.
