Right? I would imagine you had to be 18 to participate in the vaccine trials. So in that case it should only be approved for 18 years and older.



I don't know how vaccine trails work, but every OTC medicine I see (cough medicine, tylenol, etc) all have ages, often 2, 4, 6, etc years old. How do they come up with those ages? Are there trials with 5 year olds?

Whatever method they use for Tylenol, could they use that same method for vaccines?

Lots of vaccines are given at a very young age. Are they able to reduce the age after the initial trials are over, and they see how adults handle it?



Exactly but in this instance the vaccine was fast tracked and it hasn’t even been a year of trials. So how is it possible to deduce that a minor of age 16 and 17 can take this vaccine in less then a year?

I know minors can take adult medications and vaccine are given to kids. I’m trying to figure out where this age of 16 came from with how fast this vaccine came out? Kids can’t get it except 16 & 17 year old children can. How did they come up with this at this point in time?

Maybe a solution would be to vaccinate teachers first along with medical workers. They are definitely essential. In person school is essential



Teachers are next in line to be vaccinated.



Yes. I am hoping to be able to get mine in February. The problem will be convincing teachers to take it. Some DOE teachers have a lawsuit going that they refuse to take a vaccine and refuse to be tested. I am sure this is not a NYC only problem, I am sure there are teachers all over the country who will refuse this vaccine. I really want to believe we are finally close to the end- but anti science people make that difficult.



ok so they don't want a vaccine. They don't want to be tested. Then what is the solution? Like seriously if you don't get vaccinated, when will it EVER be safe to go back in person?
Kids can't get vaccinated yet.
So what's their answer?



I know these people are extremists so they do not represent the greater teaching population. But going by only what I have read on the group, they fall into two camps. The "keep schools closed until 85% of the population is vaccinated" and "no tests, no vaccine, bogus virus, back to the way things were before March".
I do realize this is a small fraction of educators, but still disheartening to read.



So the ones that want 85% of the population vaccinated...as long as it's not them getting the vaccine right?
Wow.
I know it's a small majority of crazies who think this way but man is it disturbing!



THIS is why I am soooo glad I am done this year with schooling. None of us in my house will take the vaccine and there is NO way I would allow my child to have it to attend school.
I feel bad for parents as this doesn't sound like a good situation all around in the next few years.



Kids under 16 can't get the vaccine anyway. It's not approved for use in children



10th, 11th and 12th would still be included in that.



Exactly, technically those are still children. I wouldn’t let my 16yr old get it. They are still developing and growing.



Is there any word if it will be mandatory to attend school for 16 year olds and up? I hope not



I haven’t hear about any vaccines being mandated for kids for school. I don’t think it will be available or ready in time.

I’m curious as to where this age of 16 comes from. You didn’t test on kids and everyone’s body development is different. So how come it’s ok for 16 and 17 year olds?



Right? I would imagine you had to be 18 to participate in the vaccine trials. So in that case it should only be approved for 18 years and older.



They are currently doing trials in participants 12 and over. Before this, it was 16 and over. You did not need to be over 18.
