Brazil’s Ministry of Health has decided to extend the use of Pfizer’s vaccine against the new coronavirus (Covid-19) to all babies and children between 6 months and 4 years and 11 months.

The decision was disclosed through a technical note from the PNI coordination, signed on the 23rd of this month.

The issue was analyzed by Conitec, which gave a favorable opinion for the Covid vaccine for all children from 6 months to 4 years, with or without comorbidities, in early December.

Until then, the federal government had distributed the first doses of “Pfizer Baby” only to children from 6 months to 2 years and 11 months who had comorbidities.

Here are some reactions from experts from Brazil:

Absurd cases and more and more cases of side effects, especially in children and adolescents, and gives vaccination with one of the vaccines that have more cases (Pfizer)

I can’t believe it; the owner of Pfizer himself already said over 15 days ago in an interview that this vaccine does not work. Help save the children.

The whole world stops this shit, and Brazil insists on this mistake …. start researching this topic.
