@AmerAcadPeds, many changes since your 2021 statement opposing off-label vax:☑️Favorable safety & eff. data for 5-11; 0-2 trial success☑️Indirect protection from vaccinated reduced w/Omi☑️<5 EUA delayed☑️Rising <5 hospitalizations & more. Will you provide an update? #offlabelu5
@AmerAcadPeds Sources: 1. August statement from AAP aap.org/en/news-room/n…
@AmerAcadPeds 2. <5 hospitalizations rising higher in absolute terms AND relative to older peds age groups: covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tra… 
Another view (same source) shows how wildly out of proportion the <5 hospitalization rates are compared to previous waves. Now approaching levels in 18-49.
Notably, 0-4 is the only age group that remains 100% unvaccinated while also being highly exposed via childcare with limited (or no) ability to mask. Indirect protection from vaxxed household members also down with Omi. A perfect storm behind the data!
