After claiming that Covid shots killed children, FDA says it is also looking at other age groups

Source: CNN Health

PUBLISHED Dec 9, 2025, 9:22 PM ET


The US Food and Drug Administration is looking into whether deaths “across multiple age groups” have been related to Covid-19 vaccines, a spokesperson said Tuesday, weeks after a senior agency official claimed — without offering evidence – that Covid-19 vaccinations resulted in the deaths of 10 children. Andrew Nixon, a spokesperson for the US Department of Health and Human Services, said the FDA is conducting “a thorough investigation” but declined to offer details on what data sources are being used and what potential changes, if any, are being considered to Covid vaccine approval or marketing.

Dr. Vinay Prasad, the FDA’s chief medical and scientific officer and director of its Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, claimed in a memo late last month that “Healthy young children who faced tremendously low risk of death were coerced, at the behest of the Biden administration, via school and work mandates, to receive a vaccine that could result in death.”

Prasad did not provide details about the 10 deaths or how the FDA came to that conclusion but pointed to “an initial analysis” that examined 96 deaths and linked 10 to the Covid-19 vaccination. He also claimed that Covid “was never highly lethal for children” and that the effects of it “are comparable” to respiratory viruses for which there aren’t annual vaccines.

More than 700 million doses of Covid-19 vaccines have been administered in the US since they became available in late 2020, according to the World Health Organization. The shots have been extensively tested and continually monitored for safety, and serious side effects such as anaphylaxis or myocarditis have been generally rare. FDA regulations require health care providers to report deaths after vaccination to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), even if it’s not clear that vaccination was the cause of death.

They might try to inflict the Christian scientist philosophy of no modern medical treatment on us all.

Come to think of it, maybe that’s the health care “insurance” plan they have in store for us! Pray your troubles away!

NOT by doctors. Anecdotal bullshit (my neighbor said her brother’s friend had a child who died of a Covid shot) collected on an old website, unverified, to pretend kids died. Then, despite having no new proof, they’re going forward extrapolating on this bullshit anecdotal data. Not scientific, not medical, just “people are saying.” Exactly the way dear leader spreads lies. “People are saying.” Exactly the way late night comedians set up topical jokes: “People are talking about this…”

Why even report on this?

and I did not speak out - because I didn't have children. Then they refused to give hepatitis b vaccinations to the babies, and I did not speak out - because I didn't have a baby. Then they refused to give me my pneumovax shot, and I died of pneumonia. And no one spoke out - because refusing to give vaccinations was normal.

FDA launches safety review of two RSV drugs for infants as Kennedy scrutinizes immunizations

(and as an adult, I had my RSV vax this past March)

And if "they" (the nut running HHS and his hand-picked freaks) are going after the drugs that can treat RSV (e.g., monoclonal antibodies in this case), they'll certainly go after the same types of antivirals that treat COVID (including Paxlovid).

And then there's Stephen Miller who decided the US population should only be around 100 million.

Wonder if either or both of them invested in Big Mortuary.

I knew 13 - yes THIRTEEN - individuals in my circle of friends, colleagues and acquaintances that died before the vaccine was available. I know of no one who died after the vaccines became available and people started to get them. I know people who got sick, myself included, but I do not know anyone who died from that point forward.

Anyone else know otherwise?
