60% Of American Parents Haven’t Committed to Their Children Getting Vaccinated against Covid, Survey Suggests
Only 37% of parents in the U.S. with children aged five-11 plan on getting them vaccinated against Covid, according to a new CBS News/YouGov survey, while 35% say they are opposed to their children being ‘jabbed’ and 26% are unsure. MailOnline has the story.
Just 10% of unvaccinated moms and dads will insist upon the vaccine for their children.
The survey, completed Friday, showed 26% of parents are undecided about the jab, meaning more than 60% of adults haven’t committed to having their child vaccinated against a virus that’s killed more than 700,000 Americans.
Parents of children aged five through 11 participated in the survey; Pfizer last week asked the FDA to expand emergency use of its Covid vaccine to children in that age bracket.
The vaccine-reluctant said possible side-effects, distrust of the Government and scientists, and lack of thorough testing were their main concerns.
Interestingly, many parents who’ve themselves had the vaccine say they don’t want their young children to receive it. …
Government advisors insist vaccines are thoroughly-tested and safe, although they have been linked to serious and potentially deadly heart-inflammation in very rare cases, particularly among young men.
The survey’s results are consistent with a similar poll completed by the Kaiser Family Foundation, which showed 34% of American parents plan to vaccinate their schoolchildren as soon as a vaccine for the five-11 age group is authorised.

Maybe if you could get more than a jab against symptoms of COVID they might risk the clot shot?
700,000 Americans, nearly all of whom were over the age of 70 and statistically 0% of whom were under the age of 11.
Safety is an important issue but the most important issue is that these vaccines are unnecessary for children, because children aren’t at risk from the disease – at all.
In the UK in the first year of the pandemic, 25 children died from COVID. Of these 25, 19 had chronic or life-altering medical conditions.
Only six healthy children (out of 12 million) in the entire country died of the virus. So the “very small risk” is actually a 1-in-2-milllion risk for almost all children.
6 supposedly healthy children, naturally they’re not going to investigate and tell us what undiagnosed conditions they actually had nor if they actually died OF or just with.
Actually, this was the rare politically-incorrect study in my opinion. The researchers – by examining all medical records from the previous year – reduced the number of “confirmed” COVID deaths among children from 61 to 25. That’s a 59 percent reduction in deaths per their analysis. Of the 25 deaths, 19 did have serious pre-existing medical conditions. Of the other six, they apparently found no other medical details that would have contributed to death so they classified these as deaths “from” COVID. However, the authors did allow some of these six deaths could have been among children who had non-diagnosed medical conditions. So six would be the maximum number of deaths “from” Covid, but it might not have been this many. I still think this is one of the more important COVID mortality studies done to date. It’s certainly the most comprehensive analysis. Basically, once every two months, a child (O to 17) in the UK died “from” COVID. One wonders what the death numbers would be in other countries if similar “cause of death” analysis was performed. Or if such analysis was performed in older age cohorts. For example, I’m sure deaths in the 18 to 30 age cohort… Read more »
You mean died with a positive COVID test and symptoms that span just about every major respiratory and some cardiac diseases. We’re still in the realms of the probability of lightning strikes here.
I seem to remember several of these deaths were premature babies.
And the risks from an experimental untested non trialled gene therapy is???
Nope, they don’t know but even the slightest whiff of a teeny tiny risk would, a short while ago led to the lot being withdrawn and incinerated.
There are no words! Feckin child killers!
It is a crime that people were denied early tx’s for covid and no one had to die. Someone will rot in hell for this!
Awaits the classification of them as domestic terrorists.
And no, that’s not a joke.
I wish to God that it were.
Yep. Just like here: https://boriquagato.substack.com/p/kitten-corner-domestic-terrorism/comments?token=eyJ1c2VyX2lkIjo0NDU4MDkxMiwicG9zdF9pZCI6NDI0NDY4NzEsIl8iOiJDb09sbCIsImlhdCI6MTYzMzk2MzIwNywiZXhwIjoxNjMzOTY2ODA3LCJpc3MiOiJwdWItMzIzOTE0Iiwic3ViIjoicG9zdC1yZWFjdGlvbiJ9.mgDabrmbA6ualwafhmxQjJ8zEebtCRaKshPSuLW46PU
(Borrowed from another commenter):
“Domestic terrorist” is the Americanized form of “enemy of the state” or “enemy of the people.”
“Haven’t committed” ???
That has a slightly different spin to “have refused” doesn’t it, like referring to us as “vaccine hesitant”.
Yes, the constant assumption is that we will all eventually relent somehow. Deeply unlikely unless things get very ugly indeed. A friend of mine sits in on a PHE meeting regularly on vaccine uptake in her area, in which 86% have already relented. When she suggests that 86% is pretty good and they are unlikely to go up much further, the PHE execs are mystified by this. They want everybody jabbed. Dream on, I say. At this stage if you haven’t been jabbed, I’d say you’re never going to be. You can’t unsee the things people like us have seen about these so-called vaccines.
It’s like the ZOE website, which refers to the “not yet vaccinated” rather than the “unvaccinated”.
Anyone still believe polls?
In the US of course some parents will have potential huge healthcare bills should there be a serious side effect… and pharma won’t pay up, maybe they’ve heard that by now.
You hit the big one: Pfizer isn’t legally liable for their product at this stage. We saw last decade with the narcolepsy side-effect that vaccines that adult immune systems can handle (and I have been double jabbed), growing, healthy and pubescent immune systems might not be the same. Again, if they faced any actually risk from Covid, if would be worth the risk potentially. But they are more at risk in the shower or the school run or to the vaccine centre than from Covid.
We lived in America part of last decade. Love the place. My three kids were all school age then (2 still are here), and I can tell you from PTA meetings, there are always 1/3 of parents (ha, I was the only dad involved) who will dive in full charge with the “common opinion.” And when you challenge them they assume you are either an idiot, a conspiracy but, or worst of all, a traditionalist. So these numbers done surprise me. Actually the fact that so many 12-18 years old have been jabbed for a virus that is no threat to them and could cause them harm via vaccine. But panic works. And I say that as a double jabbed parent. The media has been very good at painting anyone who questions vaccine appropriateness for younger populations as “anti-vaxer.” Which is a bold faced lie, since myself and millions others got jabbed but simply don’t want it for our kids. Pfizer is still protected by the government from any liability for its vaccine. Let’s take that away and see if they want to keep pushing it on younger and younger ages. Right now it’s all 7s. So why wouldn’t they.… Read more »
The “anti vexers” are not anti vaccine. If they were, they and their children would not have gotten any vaccines. Most have actually gotten all of the childhood vaccines.
The “anti vaxxers” are, in fact, anti MANDATORY vaccines against COVID. Big difference.
Still, the pejorative smear has worked as intended.
“Government advisors insist vaccines are thoroughly-tested and safe,..”
but we don’t believe them.
all the government needs to do is (a) acknowledge that it bears the burden to convince us, and (b) do so in an open debate with (for example) this guy: https://rumble.com/vnbv86-winning-the-war-against-therapeutic-nihilism-and-trusted-treatments-vs-unte.html
So safe pfizer needs a guarantee that there’s no warrantee or comeback from their own product.
Odd that.
The numbers say different – considering everything else to date has all been “about the numbers” [everyone obsessed with no’s of deaths, cases etc] it is odd now that they don’t seem to be at all interested in the numbers of those injured, in some cases in a life altering way, after being jabbed, or the numbers of those who have died as a direct result of being jabbed. Those numbers very much suggest the jab is anything but safe.
I’m sorry, but if it’s not an emphatic No then you’ve lost your bloody mind.
‘Government advisors insist vaccines are thoroughly-tested and safe…’
According to what standard? By definition, there is no mid/long-term safety data, so in order to assert these ‘vaccines’ are ‘thoroughly-tested and safe’ you need to redefine the terms ‘thoroughly’ and ‘safe’.
We are dealing with some truly sick, evil individuals here.
‘…although they have been linked to serious and potentially deadly heart-inflammation in very rare cases, particularly among young men.’
1. Not to mention these injections are linked to numerous ‘spontaneous abortions’ (which are not merely ‘adverse events’ but deaths of human lives in the womb), along with a shitload of other conditions. But let’s swerve all that nonsense and go with the obligatory mention of heart conditions!
2. Statistically speaking, this disease poses no risk to children, and thus the risk from inaction is zero. When there is zero risk from inaction, then any risk from intervention is utterly unacceptable.
Make no mistake, this is emphatically not about ‘the science’!
Only 35 percent have said “No,” they will not get their child vaccinated. So one third of the population still has hope. But we are still outnumbered a lot to a little.
I’d be surprised if the “Maybes” don’t tend to fall in the “Never” direction as they get more information. Don’t lose hope yet! If they haven’t made their minds up yet with all the concerted pressure then i suspect they won’t fall towards the pro vax side!

The Biden Administration is lying to Americans. The FDA has not approved the vaccine their children will be given.
Trainers! How infra dig Mr Young.
Remember these surveys are rigged!
Here’s an article previously on the WEF site that proves it.

Americans are being brainwashed by joe Biden and Tony fauci plus the heads of the cdc and fda. This is criminal. Americans have no idea thousands have been killed by the vaccines and thousands have been seriously injured. The MSM has suppressed, censored any discussion of this.
