Breaking – Hungary to start inoculating children aged 5-11!
Hungary is prepared to inoculate children aged 5-11 against Covid after the European drug regulator approved the use of Pfizer’s vaccine for this age group, the government website koronavirus.gov.hu said on Thursday.
Â
The European Medicines Agency (EMA) on Thursday gave the go-ahead for the vaccination of children between the ages of 5 and 11 using the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid jab.
Â
Hungary has enough Pfizer vaccines in stock to organise the inoculation of this age group, and
Â
the government has set aside more jabs for the vaccination of children,
Â
the website said.
Â
Hungary began vaccinating teens aged 16-17 against Covid in May, the site said, adding that 56 percent of this age group was now inoculated. Children between the ages of 12 and 15 began receiving the shots a month later, and now have a 36 percent inoculation rate, it said.
Â
Â
The website noted that
Â
parental consent is required for the vaccination of those under the age of 18.
Â
Meanwhile, the website said that some 6,000 children between the ages of 12 and 17 have received a jab since the start of this week’s national vaccination campaign, with most of them getting their first shot.

My heart breaks! Inoculating a group of beautiful souls – majority (99.9999999999) of which are not affected by CV and even if they are, have a 99.8% survival rate is diabolical – and that is the best word I have to describe it publicly.
