Petition to the Government of Canada
- A risk vs benefit calculation does not support giving COVID-19 vaccines to children under the age of 18;
- COVID-19 vaccines use novel technologies and are still in Phase 3 trials to determine safety and efficacy, and are only authorized for use in Canada under emergency protocols; and
- Although they are characterized as "rare," in fact many adverse events and deaths from COVID-19 vaccines, for both children and adults are now being reported around the world, including in Canada.
