In light of the FDA admitting That the pcr test is useless because it doesnt differenciate between flu Añd covid, Añd based in the precautionary principle I urge You to halt the rollout of the vaccine trial for children. All existing information tells US that covid is not a serious threat to children and The decisión to inclúde them in the trial was based on what are now known to be bogus case numbers. Even if this was not the case in light of the guiding principle that the best interest of the child is Paramount, i fail to see how including them in the rollout is in Any way in their best interest. I would also like to request under The freedom of information act All the safety studies and Other information held by You relating to children That brought About the decision to include them in the trial.
