'DOES OMICRON AFFECT CHILDREN?'- this question brings zero uk results! What kind of country is this? Not one word from any uk institution that cared to count the effects of omicron on children- considered unworthy of even counting in the uk! @covidinquiryuk #CovidCoverUp
@Nature : ''Children are making up a larger proportion of patients hospitalized with COVID than in previous infection waves''. Where are the uk institutions that bothered to monitor the effect of omicron and repeated infections on children? Where is any data? @karamballes
'While COVID-19 infections are typically milder in kids and babies, the spread of Omicron contributed to a record number of pediatric cases and hospitalizations last winter and continued to cause spikes in children getting the virus ever since'.whattoexpect.com/first-year/hea… NO UK DATA!
Summer 2022: paediatric wards full of 'winter viruses', once mentioned on uk MSM, with NHS blaming lockdowns! How did they monitor children getting sick? @covidinquiryuk
CDC advice for omicron affecting children:''Get yourself and children older than 6 months vaccinated (and, in the case of those 5 and older, boosted) against COVID-19.'' Where is the uk advice or even admission that omicron affects children? @BInvestigates
@MHRAgovuk approved covid vaccines for 6 months old babies in Dec 2022. Of course JCVI had to fight it, approving it only for CV babies, vaccination starting 6 months after its approval, 1 year after the US approved this vaccine for ALL children.
JCVI: ''For the vast majority of infants and children, COVID-19 causes only mild symptoms, or sometimes no symptoms.'' So children were not affected by omicron in the uk, despite being affected in other countries, despite uk paediatric wards being full of 'winter viruses'
''Since these symptoms mimic those of the common cold, if your children experience any of them, you should get them tested for COVID-19 and isolate them until you get results, says Chief Medical Officer of Akron Children’s Hospital in Akron,Ohio''. uk advice was to not even test!
Where is the NHS warning, advice to test and vaccinate, as found in other countries: ''Omicron has proven to be the most contagious COVID-19 variant of the pandemic so far. The main difference with Omicron is the sheer number of kids getting sick at the same time.''
While JCVI, NHS,RCPCH have zero data about long covid in children, only reminders of how covid is like a cold,advising children to not even test,the reality: 'When children are not yet vaccinated,their immune systems are not as well-equipped to deal with exposure to harmful germs
Why isn't NHS encouraging children to vaccinate, prevent and protect against a level 3 biohazard, while JCVI is happy to reinfect them endlessly, how did NHS check the effect of reinfections, while advising them to not test for covid? WHERE ARE THE uk WARNINGS?
Why isn't NHS warning parents, they didn't yet manage to notice anything?''For example,a recent study linked prior infection with COVID19 to an increased risk of diabetes.And we don't yet know the full extent of how COVID affects children in the long-term.'healthychildren.org/English/tips-t…
This was the reality while the only uk obsession was with full school attendance, with zero IPC measures- considered a burden by UKHSA! What uk institution was ever worried about children getting sick during a pandemic that killed millions? #CovidCoverUp
NHS had the power to protect children, warn parents, inform everyone about the real dangers of covid: WHY DIDN'T THEY?

Here is the list of those entitled to covid tests,when in hospital with covid symptoms. How does NHS check when a patient is entitled to a covid test, if this list is under regular review? Who checks and decides when patients are entitled to covid tests?gov.uk/government/pub…
UKHSA's list of those entitled to covid tests when having covid symptoms,under 'regular review':''certain conditions affecting their blood''-so hospital staff will have to check with UKHSA,before deciding if a patient with covid symptoms is entitled to a covid test?How is it done
''A broader group of patients (currently those aged 18 years& over, and with underlying health conditions) may also be able to take part in the PANORAMIC clinical study if they test positive for COVID-19 and are symptomatic'' PANORAMIC CLINICAL STUDY doesn't seem to exist anymore

UKHSA Aug 2022, when paediatric wards were full of 'winter viruses': ''Symptomatic testing will also continue for individuals who are eligible to access COVID-19 treatments'' While the rest of the patients and staff with covid symptoms are not entitled to a covid test?
While paediatric wards were getting full of 'winter viruses',last summer, UKHSA stopped access to covid tests even for patients and staff. Then NHS blamed the lockdowns! Then JCVI stopped access to covid vaccines! UKHSA stopped @ONS! @covidinquiryuk @drclairetaylor #CovidCoverUp
Aug 2022, UKHSA: ''Symptomatic testing will also continue for individuals who are eligible to access COVID-19 treatments'' So a patient with covid symptoms, in the same hospital ward as a patient eligible for covid treatment, can not be tested for covid? @AdamBienkov

COVID-19 is a leading cause of death in children and young people in the US | University of Oxford ox.ac.uk/news/2023-01-3…
US: ''Although COVID-19 amplifies the impacts of other diseases (such as pneumonia and influenza), this study focuses on deaths that were directly caused by COVID-19, rather than those where COVID-19 was a contributing cause.''
US: ''Therefore, it is likely that these results understate the true burden of COVID-19 related deaths in this age-group''
