- Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and federal health officials are investigating claims linking COVID-19 mRNA vaccines to the deaths of 25 children.
- Officials may restrict vaccine access, potentially recommending them only for those aged 75 and up instead of 65 and up.
- Claims are based on unverified reports from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS), which allows anyone to submit adverse event reports.
- VAERS reports are unverified upon submission, with CDC staff following up on serious cases to assess validity.
- Global data shows COVID-19 vaccines are remarkably safe, with rare cases of myocarditis and pericarditis, generally mild and not linked to deaths.
- During the 2023–2024 season, heart condition incidence was 27 cases per million doses in high-risk males aged 12–24.
- Vaccinated individuals had lower death rates than the general population.
- 25 children died of COVID-19 (not the vaccine) since July 2023; most were unvaccinated or not up-to-date on vaccines.
