Parents demand to allow teenagers who are not vaccinated to learn: "The risk is minimal"

Seventh- through tenth-grade students have learned mostly from home in the past year, and it is not yet clear how many parents will choose to vaccinate them, when there is no mandatory instruction.

The national parents' leadership welcomed the intention to vaccinate 15-12 year olds, but not all parents are convinced.

The national parents' leadership welcomes the announcement of the Pfizer company that arrived today and sees it as a partial solution for middle schools, which returned to school on a two-week schedule for about two hours a day.

Itai Kaplinsky, acting chairman of the national parent leadership, told Walla!

That the position of the organization is that anyone who can get vaccinated should get vaccinated, but added restrictions.

"If the Ministry of Health approves that the vaccine is safe and effective for children at these ages, then we are of course in favor of the vaccine," he said.

"At the same time, we do not think that those who cannot or should not have their parents vaccinated should be vaccinated."

He said, "We do not think a student should be prevented from studying because his parents do not want to vaccinate him at this stage. It is against the law. As long as vaccination is not mandatory by law, we do not think it should be forced. On the rule of caution, of course. "

"The risk to children is minimal."

As part of the facilitation in the education system approved by the government three weeks ago, it was determined that in grades 11-12 where more than 90% of the students were vaccinated or recovered, the studies would take place in full classes and without restriction in the transition between the groups.

According to data from the Ministry of Education, only about 65% of all students in grades 11-12 were vaccinated, and according to Kaplinsky, this threshold should be lowered as early as next week.

"The risk to children is minimal," Kaplansky says.

"The rules set by the health uprising for students in schools are unrealistic. There is no reason that only in yearbooks in which more than 90% were vaccinated in 11th-12th grades will they learn fully. This threshold should be lowered to 70% as early as next week and abolished. The whole capsule thing. "

Kaplansky notes that there is no reason for one verified student to send the entire capsule for isolation.

“It can be done from three students, as has already been done in other countries abroad.

We are in the last line of the school year, we need to allow a proper study framework until the last day. "

He adds that emphasis must be placed on middle school students, ie ages 15-12." They study barely two days a week in this new outline, they must return.

The malls are blown up, there are shows, there are sports games, nature reserves, and students at these ages stay at home. "

Parents are already worried that the issue of vaccines will soon become a necessary condition.

Although the vaccinations of children aged 15-12 have not yet been approved, quite a few parents are already concerned that the issue of vaccines will soon become a necessary condition for frontal studies.

There is no consensus in the national parent leadership on the issue.

Unlike Kaplinsky Odelia Cohen Siindorf, vice chairman of the national leadership of the parents, the girl says her student class of G, not Tthsn. However, despite Cohen Siindorf herself, her husband and their two children, 17 year olds have been vaccinated against the corona.

"There is no reason Vaccinate children aged 15-12, "Cohen Sheindorf explains her considerations." The data unequivocally show that the morbidity in children is mild, there are no hospitalizations and therefore there is no trigger to run and vaccinate.

Pfizer, on the other hand, which is a very serious company, did an experiment on only 2,300 children and for a short period of time.

Right now in adolescence, when all the systems are developing in them, I personally am not willing to make that decision that has a long-term impact and get vaccinated. ”

She adds that she is not prepared“ for this vaccine to make children hostages to return to routine.

Vaccines are a tool for those who want and are interested, I am afraid they will become a tool forcibly returning to routine in children.

In severely ill adults the decision is very easy.

In children who are ill, it is not easy to run and get vaccinated. "

Elrai-Price: We will wait for FDA approval, we will not round corners

The head of the public health service, Dr. Sharon Elrai-Price, explained that there will be an internal and professional discussion in the Ministry of Health, after the vaccine for ages 15-12 is approved by the FDA. "We do not want to approve urgently, but in an orderly manner like the adult vaccine In a considered manner, "she said." Once the approval comes, we will not delay it. "

Elrai-Price added that" even in adults we did our external inspection after the FDA approval, did not round corners and did not round corners this time.

These are important vaccines, I vaccinated my children over the age of 16 and will store those under 16 as soon as there is a permit. "

In Israel, there are more than 200 children under the age of 16 who have already received the vaccine because they have background diseases, such as diabetes or obesity. In the virus, the risk of the disease was greater than the risk in the vaccine. "From our experience with vaccines aged 15-12, no side effects have been reported and it seems very safe," states Elrai-Price.

"I can understand the parents' concern."

Following the vaccine on teens, what will the next school year look like in the education system?

"Morbidity rates among 18- to 16-year-olds dropped significantly after vaccination, even though since the onset of the epidemic at these ages the morbidity rates have been the highest. "90% immunization. In general, even with regard to summer activities, vaccinated groups can return to routine activities as before. This applies to education, organized trips and non-formal education."

Do you expect a similar response as among those aged 16 and over or a lower response?

"Before we entered the adult vaccination campaign, we did not think that over three million would be vaccinated within three months, so this time too I hope we will be surprised. The adult vaccination campaign can affect both directions - perhaps for the better, after seeing that the vaccine is safe and something works here. 12 are not fundamentally different from those aged 18-16. But it could actually have an adverse effect, saying that if there are so many vaccinated people should not be given more vaccines and good morbidity data. I can understand the parents' concern, but need to manage it and act transparently, give to people To choose and not to force anything. "
