We don't often post in the evening, but we just saw this alert from CHD and it's important with a MIDNIGHT DEADLINE! Plus an interesting exchange on Twitter/X below the call to action.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has scheduled a Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee (VRBPAC) meeting on May 16 to discuss and make recommendations on the selection of strain(s) to be included in the 2024-2025 formula for COVID-19 vaccines.

Let’s flood the committee’s docket with demands to get COVID-19 vaccines off the childhood schedule — and off the market altogether!

Here's one response we got on Twitter/X from a new follower Dr. Jessica Giddens DNP (she/they/xe)(nurse) @DrJGiddensRNJESSICA WHELAN BA, APRN, PMHNP-BC, RN-BC Scientific Director, Public Speaker, Neurodiversity, DEI, AI, System Change, Genomics, Biotech, Advocate:
I would most certainly not do this.
And my response:
And we respect your right to choice. Once on the pediatric schedule - all manner of loopholes apply - in order to get any relief from injury. And if the vaccine becomes necessary to attend school, many families who choose some/most even all currently mandated vaccines for their kids would be out of compliance if they said NO to only this vaccine. Their kids expelled. That's hardly a way to encourage vaccination, if that is your goal. The Covid vaccine has made more Americans "Anti-vaxxers" (a word we dislike, pro choice is not anti) than any previous vaccine since the catastrophic Swine flu vaccine in the 70s. Thanks for the civil chat. KIM

I will do this, but we all know it does not matter.
It has been obvious from the beginning this is their plan to go around the laws to get to that sweet spot of not being sued.
Kind of hard trying to get a none existent approved vaccine, and still get it approved for the peds, then no suing.
They have worked hard at this.
