Nearly three million kids across Canada aged five to 11 years old could soon be eligible for doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, if the drugmaker's submission to Health Canada is approved.

MONTREAL -- Parents of young, school-aged children across Canada may soon finally be able to breathe a sigh of relief.

With school already underway and COVID-19 cases among children rising across the country, a vaccine for this age group can't come soon enough, experts say. The pediatric version of the vaccine has a dose that's one-third of the amount given to teens and adults, and according to the company has shown aMany parents are eager for their kids to get vaccinated, including the Curtis family of Sherwood Park, Alta., whose 10-year-old Caden and four-year-old Ella are both recovering from COVID-19.

Elementary school students are also carrying a heavy load. On top of keeping up with homework, they have to be mindful of COVID-19 in the classroom, or risk being shut down.

She died. Nurse Tiffany Williams. It’s a soft kill bio weapon

No parents we know, including us want our kids to get the vaccine. Matter of fact our doctor is against the vaccine all together for both adults and children. Go figure.

This story should be retracted immediately for misinformation. The doctor is quoted as saying the vaccine provides immunity which we all know is not factual. - do better. Just because he is a doctor doesn’t mean the misinformation should be published

Why are we having outbreaks in restaurants with all vaccinated people? Vaxxing kids is not the answer. You know what would get rid of COVID? Stop testing. Problem solved. I cannot count how many hospitals are saying there are few to no 'COViD' patients with actual COViD symptoms.

😂😂 No they don’t. All you post are lies!

Not speaking for me surely.

Parents need to be vaccinated or their little darlings can just stay home. This should be imposed on daycares and all extracurriculars. It would protect many others

From reading these replies, seems like parents are pumped 🤸… 🤡

Hey since when do you speak for all parents

Do you get funding per number of propaganda posts, the propaganda content or both?

NO SANE RATIONAL parent wants this for their children leavechildrenalone NoVaccineMandates novaccineforkids

Every shift change you have to repeat tweets? This is the third time.

Im a parent and I DONT want it to be approved!!!

Plenty of parents and doctors praying it doesn't get approved. But it will. Because money, and rubes.

This really seems to piss these russian bots off.

It’s already approved we are just planning the logistics and coordinating the timing with the US.

No, only a small group of devils hope to vaccinate children who rarely get severe covid. You have to be sick to go after little children like that.

God, we are a stupid species.

How many of those kids are ending up in hospitals or transmitting to people who end up in hospitals? If the answer is minimal, don't worry about the outbreaks and let the kids develop some natural immunity. It's better for them long term.

CTV, stop pushing this garbage. I haven’t heard one parent who is eager to jab their young child.

As soon as humanly possible my 11 year old will get the shot. My wife myself and our oldest have been fully vaxxed for months. It was a little anxiety inducing when our youngest went back to the classroom.

This is mass hysteria if parents are that concerned. But I don't think they are. Making this mass propaganda.

Maybe don't send kids who can't get vaccinated yet. Just a suggestion....

People under 19, aka kids, make up almost 31% of all cases yet only have only had 17 deaths and 1707 hospitalizations (as of Oct 1 2021). There is literally no reason to vaccinate them ffs.

Thanks for telling us what parents and doctors want. For your next trick, explain why Canadians wanted the Japanese minority interned. Better yet, explain how a complicit media greased public opinion for the government.

Liar

This getting so fucking stupid! Banishing adults from restaurants, movie theater, casino. Next will be banishing kids from the zoo, pools/splash pads, play structures. NoMoreLockdowns NoMoreVaccinePassport

Flu is not a new thing, don't scare people, people have been in fear for almost 2 years and their immune is down, but stand up and shake up people, you know what to do, take care of your bodies, it will thank you ...

This is where it stops. Your the problem. Your the outbreak. Your fake news.

Watch the vaxxed become antivaxers

Outbreaks in schools? Didn't we always have sick kids in pre COVID times?

Creepy AF

I was thinking of blocking mainstream “news” but I’m going to stick around to watch you all implode as your paid propaganda and participation in crimes against humanity get exposed as is already happening .

Children may or may not get as sick as adults, but they definitely can pass away or have long term suffering affects….these are our future, we have to protect them at all….all costs.

No, they don't.

No one cares... In 2 years 17 youth under 20 has died ***WITH*** covid... Mostly due to comorbidities and other illnesses directly. There is basically 0 risk to children. No sane parent wants their child's robust immune system compromised by lab juice.

VaccinePassports are not the answer. They encourage gathering in groups while the pandemic rages on. Vaxxed or not, WeAreAllSpreaders and WeCanAllCatchCovid. Save a kid from wearing a mask or a teen from depression or worse by laying low &saying no to Vaxxpasses. LayLowSayNo
