Senior AIIMS Doctor Calls Govt's Decision On Vaccinating Children 'Unscientific'

On Saturday night, Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed the nation and announced that the central government has decided to open covid-19 vaccination for children aged 15-18 from 3rd January 2022. PM Modi further added that doing so will reduce the worries of children attending schools and colleges and boost the fight against the covid-19 pandemic. However, the president of the Indian Public Health Association and a senior epidemiologist at AIIMS, Dr Sanjay K Rai, argued that the union government should have analysed data from other countries that have started vaccinating children before taking the decision. Tagging the PMO account on Twitter, Mr Rai tweeted: "I am a great fan of PM Modi for his selfless service to the nation and taking the right decisions at the right time. But I am completely disappointed with his unscientific decision on children's vaccination," He further explained: "In this section (children), 15,000 (people) are not dying and keeping in mind the adverse effects also, if you do the risk and benefit analysis, then the risk is more than the benefits based on the available data. Both the objectives are not being fulfilled by initiating vaccination among children," https://twitter.com/narendramodi/status/1474775804336697345
