It is a sign of the bankruptcy of the public health establishment that they continue to flog covid shots in healthy kids. In addition to the weak methodology that the author dissects, a fair analysis would almost certainly show that the highly reactogenic modRNA covid shots cause more influenza-like illnesses than they prevent, even if one accepts the flawed MMWR results at face value. We have already reached the point where even a single case of vax-induced myocarditis from these shots is an unacceptable risk for kids.
great piece. unfortunately for some the damage has already been done. remove the shots from the childhood schedule.we live in a fear based society where folks are unable to see through the madness.
I have always been of the opinion that if fancy statistics are necessary to prove something then it’s probably not true. Number needed to treat (NNT)should be the way all medical science should be reported to the public and serve as a basis by which we make clinical decisions.
As a medical conservative and skeptic if I have to jab 40 kids to get one meaningful response: that’s the information parents need in an “informed consent” scenario. Anything less is subversive malpractice.
If you cannot state the benefit in two sentences or less, it’s probably not there.
Simplistic? Yes. But frequently true.

“CDC would be well-served to be an honest broker…” hear hear! Yet those days are long gone
