For the first time in decades, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has released a vaccine schedule that conflicts with the CDC's guidance under Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The AAP continues to recommend routine COVID-19 vaccinations for infants as young as six months, while the CDC has moved away from this recommendation for healthy children. Dr. Celine Gounder defends the AAP, claiming the CDC's process has been "politicized."

Dr. Osterholm advocates for the vaccination of children under five, citing hospitalization and death statistics. President Joe Biden is shown visiting a vaccine clinic to encourage parents. The hosts contrast these official pushes with widespread parental hesitancy and concerns over the necessity of the shots for young children.

The CDC reports that 75% of American children now have COVID-19 antibodies, largely due to the Omicron surge. Despite this high level of natural immunity, the FDA is moving toward authorizing mRNA vaccines for children under five in June 2022. Parents in the reports express frustration over delays, while health officials stress that the primary goal of the vaccine is to prevent severe illness rather than all infections.

Pfizer released promotional material featuring children as "superheroes" for participating in COVID-19 vaccine trials. CBS News reported on a surge in pediatric hospitalizations, though the report admitted many children were admitted for other reasons and tested positive incidentally. The hosts compare the media's focus on "babies in the ICU" to the 1990 incubator propaganda used during the Gulf War.

The hosts highlight his admission of uncertainty regarding long-term effects in children.

The discussion focuses on the NBC Nightly News Kids Edition hosted by Lester Holt, which the hosts characterize as psychological warfare and marketing for Pfizer. They analyze a segment featuring a six-year-old asking complex medical questions about mixing vaccine doses. A doctor uses a shoe metaphor to explain why children and parents should stick to the same vaccine brand.

### CDC Warnings and Youth Vaccination Efficacy

- **Episode:** [1334: Kackling Kamala](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1334-kackling-kamala.md)

- **Time:** 17:32–19:33
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1334-kackling-kamala/chapter/cdc-warnings-and-youth-vaccination-efficacy.md

Pfizer reported 100% efficacy for its COVID-19 vaccine in children aged 12 to 15, a statistic critics argue is misleading given the low natural risk of severe illness in that demographic. Simultaneously, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky warned that younger Americans are at increased risk for death and long-term side effects due to a new surge. Media coverage has shifted toward portraying the virus as a "monster" targeting the unvaccinated youth.

ABC News reports a surge in pediatric COVID-19 cases, which the hosts question as potentially being based on positive PCR tests rather than actual illness. Scott Gottlieb predicts the UK variant will double every week. To combat vaccine hesitancy, companies like Aldi and Dollar General are reportedly offering "bribes" or pay incentives for employees to get vaccinated.
