I'm anti mandate, and I've been pretty clear about agreeing that the primary reasons to vax under 30s is to stop transmission to older people.
This theory--that is okay to sacrifice our kids and youth to prevent grandma from going to the hospital is one of the most horrendous. And the vaxx doesn't even stop the spread so here we are sacrificing those young people for no reason.
It's a sign of a morally reprehensible society which would accept a kid sacrificing for the adults.

Probably best to ignore the dumb asses. They need peoples attention.
The Epoch Times was started by John Tang in the year 2000 as a Chinese language newspaper. John Tang is a graduate of Georgia Tech who publicly supports the Fulan Gong, a Chinese religious order that opposes communism and as such is banned from practicing in China. The newspaper started as an anti-propaganda of the Chinese state, but quickly transitioned to other languages and although it actively promotes anti-communism (even gathering signatures for a petition to “stop the Chinese Communist Party on its homepage), much of its content is focused on hard right spinning of the news
A questionable source exhibits one or more of the following: extreme bias, consistent promotion of propaganda/conspiracies, poor or no sourcing to credible information, a complete lack of transparency, and/or is fake news.
According to this report, if 30,000 students are vaxxed on a hypothetical campus 2-4 young men will experience mild-moderate heart palpitations, and between 1.3K and 3.3K will need to take aspirin to alleviate vax related aches and pains.
It's main argument is that this isn't really worth it because people in this age range aren't likely to be seriously sick with covid.
I'm pretty sure that we all knew this already, it's common knowledge that young people don't really benefit from covid shots, and that mandates for teens just creates bad PR that hampers other covid campaigns such as social distancing because it get's people's backs up.
You won't catch me saying that there should be vax mandates in college.

The source is a peer reviewed scientific study. Did you bother to read the findings or just jump to zombies' conclusion?
If you support this, you are willing to permanently disable a random number of young people in order to feel more safe.
In requesting the EUA for boosting adolescent males, the
Pfizer’s risk-benefit analysis estimated 23-69 cases of myocarditis per one million booster doses administered and 29-69 hospitalizations averted, yet this estimate of 23-69 cases of myocarditis per million third doses administered is now known to be an order of magnitude below the 200.3 per million reported by the US CDC among adolescents aged 16–17 years.
The Pfizer trial, for example, included only 78 individuals 16–17 years of age randomised to receive booster or placebo. Nevertheless one male in this age group was diagnosed with myocarditis
The ACC’s widely promoted graphic is tied to data presented by the CDC74 422 and relies on four key assumptions which necessarily bias the findings in favour of vaccination: 1) vaccine effectiveness of 95% over 120 days to prevent Covid-19 cases and hospitalizations; 2) myocarditis rates were derived from passive surveillance in VAERS instead of active surveillance available to the CDC (VSD)
resulting in harms being underestimated by a factor of 1051,52 426 ; 3) harms and benefits were averaged across ages 12–29 when the risk may be highest among those aged 16–1951,52 427 ; and 4)hospitalisation rates were tied to May 2021 data, more than a year prior to the ACC’s review and pre-Omicron. Nevertheless, for adolescent males ages 12–17, the CDC estimated 56-69
myocarditis cases would be expected while 71 ICU admissions could be averted.
I'm pretty sure that we all knew this already, it's common knowledge that young people don't really benefit from covid shots, and that mandates for teens just creates bad PR that hampers other covid campaigns such as social distancing because it get's people's backs up.

After treatment, many patients live long, full lives free from the effects of myocarditis. For others, however, ongoing cardiovascular medication or even a heart transplant may be needed. Overall, myocarditis which can cause dilated cardiomyopathy, are thought to account for up to 45 percent of heart transplants in the U.S. today.

Disability Benefits for Viral Myocarditis
Some people with viral myocarditis will need benefits while they’re recovering. One of the complications that qualify people for SSDI benefits is dilated cardiomyopathy, and there are other chronic cardiac conditions that will also help a person qualify.
For people who have one of these heart conditions due to viral myocarditis, there are a few criteria that they must also meet. For instance, they must have medical records of their condition, and within those medical records, there must also be evidence that several forms of treatment have been used to attempt to treat the condition. The heart condition must also be severe and ongoing. In the medical records that are submitted for SSDI benefits, there should be records of any hospital stays, lab testing, and physical exams. There should also be records of the diastolic and systolic failure as well as record of fluid retention in the heart.
In addition to giving evidence of the severity of the heart condition and the treatments that have been used to address the medical problem, people applying for the SSDI benefits for viral myocarditis must also have records of having failed the exercise tolerance test. This test is designed to assess the amount and strenuousness of the work that you’re able to safely do on a regular basis.
One of the final ways that a person can qualify for disability benefits is if they give medical records of having had at least three heart failures that required hospitalization within a 12-month period of time.

Let's see what kind of mental gymnastics we can employ to deny this paper.

Thats still only about 0.02%.
Any medication taken, from pain killers to blood thinners suffer from some very serious side affects but is limited to a very small number. It has been that way since the introduction of medication.
When covid stuck, one the first countries to be hit hard was Italy which had a 14% mortality rate in civid cases.

" Covid Vaccine Destroys Natural Immunity, NEJM Study Shows "
Many of US Suspected as much in the Beginning of the FAKE Plandemic , Now it is CONFIRMED .
" This is very disturbing because it suggests not only that the vaccines give negative ‘protection’ after a few months but also that they destroy the protection that should have been provided by natural immunity. The unvaccinated keep their protection from previous infection but the vaccinated end up with negative efficacy even if they’ve been previously infected. This means the vaccines appear to demolish a person’s natural immunity and leave him or her more vulnerable to infection than he or she was before."

ATS is at it's best when speculating. We are not journalists and have no responsibility to proof, evidence, 100% reliable source (if such a thing even exists anymore. The strength of ATS is the speculative analytical powers of its many magnificent minds.

How much are you paid to sit on this board constantly refreshing to defend big pharma and corrupt governments?
I hope it’s worth your soul.
Never a balanced retort, irrespective of the source, it’s always straight to the defensive.
Do you really think anyone still takes you seriously?
