Vaccinating all teens maybe difficult, study

The UK’s vaccine advisory body has decided not to recommend vaccines for healthy 12-15-year-olds, but it will offer vaccines to thousands more children with underlying health problems. Research on millions of people who’ve had the mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna) shows there’s a tiny risk of myocarditis, or inflammation of the heart, which is more common in young people - and particularly younger boys - after a second dose. It can cause chest pain and a pounding heart, but symptoms usually clear up in days. No vaccine or drug is ever 100% safe, and data from the US shows the numbers of children affected are very small. Children’s risk from Covid isn’t zero but the chances of them becoming seriously ill from Covid are incredibly small.
