Chris, wrong thread here.
I am asking a specific question about a vaccine dosage directly connected with children going back to school. “Another School year about to to begin” is the thread right or not.
I think you just blew the cover off the entire medical industrial complex!
For as long as I can remember, the dosages for aspirin have said “for adults and children 12 years and over…” Same with Pepto-Bismol, Advil, Benadryl…
More importantly, from my 20 seconds of Google research, vaccines don’t work like drugs. Depending on the vaccine, sometimes adults and children get the same dosage, and sometimes the dosage is different for children and adults. All based on the science.
So here’s an article about this exact thing…
TLDR, most vaccines are at the same dose from adolescence into adulthood. TDap being the one we are all familiar with, reallt the only exception is Hep B.
Thank you for the prompt reply. This was my thought until I talked to my pharmacist about it. He brought up that this is not the case that all children receiving vaccines have the same dosage as adults. Hence his concerns about giving children the same covid vaccine dosage to children as adults.
It’s been a little time since I read any of the preliminary results of early studies in younger kids but I think they are using about half thr dose and seeing similar results.
