Covid-19 vaccines for children

Abstract

In the last few months of evident uncertainty regarding the likely progression of SARS-CoV-2, there is considerable apprehension and intense anxiety amongst the general populace of our country. With the added complication of mutant variants, all designated by the letters of the Greek alphabet, the melting pot actually boils and even overflows. In addition to scientific data and proper pedagogic assessments, there is substantial misinformation and disinformation, particularly regarding the Covid-19 vaccines, especially in the social media. Some totally unsubstantiated allegations, stipulations, postulations and prophesies of gloom, are being widely circulated. People who flatly refuse to take the vaccine, those who are hesitant to receive it and confirmed anti-vaxxers, are having a field day in trying to dissuade the general public from taking the vaccine
