“Today important” podcast: Why there are good reasons for a corona vaccination of children

Vaccinate children against corona – yes or no? The Standing Vaccination Commission (Stiko) has not yet deviated from its restricted recommendation despite criticism. The Mannheim pediatrician Prof. Thomas Schaible, on the other hand, says: Children must be vaccinated!

After the Standing Vaccination Commission (Stiko) has not yet issued a general vaccination recommendation against Covid-19 for children and adolescents from the age of twelve, but politicians are jostling, moderator Michel Abdollahi speaks today with pediatrician Prof. Thomas Schaible from the University Hospital Mannheim. He clearly advises parents to get a vaccination: “This is not that common [Kinder] get seriously ill. But they get sick. And everything that there is in adults, there is in children too. There is also Long Covid in children. “

Robust six year old

Schaible considers the data on the safety of vaccinations for twelve to seventeen year olds to be sufficient. “The same data used for the negative vaccination recommendation [für Kinder] led, were interpreted in America as meaning that the vaccination was made, “he says. The situation is different with even smaller children, for whom there has not yet been approval:” The two to six year olds are probably the most robust. Their immune system is so strong that a corona infection is unlikely to harm them. “

Strange cat attack

The episode also deals with a woman who was out and about with her noble breed cat early Monday morning in Bremen. The 21-year-old was carrying her pet in a carrier bag when a man suddenly snatched her bag and cat away and fled. The little cat Joki is only 12 weeks old and will hopefully come back to her mistress safe and sound.
