Fact-check: Are children who take a COVID-19 vaccine 52 times more likely to suffer an early death? - FactCheckNI
Verdict: conclusion: data does not support this claim. deaths of children after vaccination are too rare to inform reliable estimates. a temporary increase is possible because children with significant pre-existing health problems received vaccines before their peers.
