Recently, the UK government announced that children aged 12-15 would be offered the covid vaccine. The Joint Committee for Vaccinations and Immunisation (JCVI) had ruled that they did NOT recommend the vaccine for this age group, but the chief medical scientists overruled them and they have started rolling them out at schools.
Many of you will have seen a video of a guy standing outside a school with a megaphone, rapping and saying 'Don't get the vaccine' to a crowd of young people. The school staff were taken aback and told the students to move away.
One of the many problems with the Governments' Covid vaccine campaign is the active discouragement of everyone, including children, to educate themselves so that they are able to give as well informed consent as possible. Instead, the campaigns have a clear message that everyone should take it without thinking about it.
Furthermore, the Government has ruled that children between 12 and 15 can overrule their parents if they want to have the vaccine and their parents do not want them to. They use the Gillick competence test to determine whether the child is mature enough to make the decision. But how can ANYONE make an informed choice without information?
The problem with much of the activist activity is that they are telling people what to do instead of encouraging them to think for themselves.
We have this bizarre situation now where everyone thinks they know what we ALL should do. The majority think that everyone should get vaccinated (because they have been pumped with that idea from the media) and a minority think that NOBODY should get vaccinated, leaving an even smaller minority that think that everyone should make their own minds up having weighed up the risks and benefits. To know that EVERYONE should or should not vaccinate, would require knowledge of each individuals circumstances AND a thorough understanding, not just of virology, epidemiology, vaccines and medicine, but also of political science, logic and economics.
Even if you have weighed up the data and you think that for children, the risks outweigh the benefits, there may be some children who are vulnerable or who have become so traumatised by the government propaganda, that it may be best for them to take the vaccine just to give them some peace of mind?
I propose therefore, that instead of telling young people not to take the vaccine, we encourage them and their parents to inform themselves as best they can and make their choices based on knowledge. If covid skeptics go outside schools with leaflets containing a series of questions for students and their parents to investigate, it would be a lot harder for the school staff or parents to object and it would be far better for the students. And if we add a competition with Hive as the prize, that could further incentivise students to make their choice from a position of knowledge.
