Between 25 Jan 2020 and 16 Mar 2022, among those <18 years of age, there were:

771,484 confirmed cases

154 confirmed deaths, of which:

115 had comorbidities

3 were partially vaccinated (all with comorb.)

3 were fully vaccinated (all except 1 with comorb.) (154 - 115 - 1)/771,484 = 0.0049%

This is the chance of a young healthy unvaccinated child of dying from Covid, provided he or she contracts Covid in the first place.

Read that again: 0.0049%

I just read that "unfalsifiable claims" is a hallmark of conspiracy theories.

Well then, you know what's an unfalsifiable claim?

ThE cOvId VaCcInEs WoRk

Because they keep changing what defines "work". "Work" how?

Stop infections? Reduce infections? Reduce by how much?

Prevent severe outcomes? Reduce severity? Reduce by how much?

"Work" for how long? 10 years? 1 year? 6 months? 3 months?

"Work" against what? Alpha, Delta, Omicron, or any variant?

"174 children experienced MIS-C after being infected with the coronavirus between Jun 2020 and Dec 2021" and 7 died.

Let's do some quick math:

550,553 kids aged 0-18 years were infected with Covid between June 2020 and Dec 2021.

174/550,553 = 0.032%

nst.com.my/news/nation/20… 7/174 = 4.02%

Chance of a child dying of MISC-C if he or she contracts Covid:

(0.032%)(4.02%) = 0.13%

Remember, this is assuming IF the child gets Covid.

Saddam once had Iraq's banknotes printed in the UK. They were called Iraqi Swiss Dinars because their printing plates were said to be designed in Switzerland. When relations soured with the West, Iraq was forced to print their own banknotes. These new notes were of far inferior quality to the ones printed in the UK. The autonomous Kurds, who were nominally part of Iraq, preferred Iraqi Swiss Dinars and refused to accept the new notes. They continued to use the old notes, which had Saddam's face on them, even long AFTER Saddam was ousted.
