孩童救星来了

辉瑞製药公司週一在一项声明中宣佈 :经过试验证明，辉瑞疫苗对三分之二的五到十一岁的孩童，不但安全而且有极强的免疫力。

虽然这份报告完整但尚未出炉，他们会尽快送交美国食品及药物管理局进行审批。

据称，辉瑞是对二千二百六十八位五至十一岁的孩童进行临床试验，在二十一天的时间里反应非常良好

辉瑞目前只能对十六岁以上的成人施打，这项突破将是孩童之福音。

美国食品暨药物管理局预计会很快会批准这项计划，孩童们在万圣节前就可以种上疫苗，目前孩童及婴儿之感染率增加了百分之二百四十。

新冠疫情蔓延开来，对社会及经济造成严重灾情， 近二年来，无疫苗可打的十六岁以下𠒇童成为疫情之最大漏洞，感染了上千的孩童，给无数家庭带来困扰和烦脑。

今天我们面临之挑战仍非常严峻，仍然有近三成的人不相科学研究，他们不顾别人之苦痛，不愿打疫苗， 因而上演了多少悲剧。

孩童们的疫苗总算来了，我们要感谢那些科技人员之努力，来拯救受苦受难的大眾。

Great News For Our Young Kids

Pfizer made an announcement Monday saying that a Phase 2/3 trial showed its Covid-19 vaccine was safe and generated a “robust” antibody response in children ages 5-11.

This is the first time such results have been released for this age group. Pfizer plans to submit its plan to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for emergency use soon.

The trial included 2,268 people ages 5 to 11 years old. This trial used 10-microgram doses, smaller than the 30-microgram doses used on older than 16 year olds. It demonstrated a strong immune response.

Since July of this year, pediatric cases of Covid-19 have risen 240 percent in the U.S. Pfizer plans to have a vaccine for children ages 5-11 available by Halloween.

U.S. health officials have emphasized that children are not just small adults and even those approaching age 12 should not be given the larger vaccine doses available for older people.

This is really great news for all of us. Over the past several months, many kids have contracted Covid-19 and made life very difficult for their families. Now they might feel a little more relaxed. For now, almost 29% of all Covid-19 cases reported in the U.S. are children under 16.

It has been almost two years now since we all have been suffering from the pandemic that has brought us so much pain. We really appreciate all the scientists who do such a great job to come to the rescue of our society.
