Thursday- 17th June, 2021: Former President of the United State of America, Donald Trump on Wednesday night warned that coronavirus vaccines are potentially dangerous for kids.
The former president said he was concerned about reports of young people suffering adverse effects from the COVID-19 vaccination, insisting that he supported the vaccination campaign but only for those for whom it was necessary.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has, since May 27, recommended that all people over the age of 12 be vaccinated against the virus.
More than 400 children in the United States have died from it, and tens of thousands have been hospitalized. The death toll for the country as a whole is now 600,000.
Yet Trump on Wednesday told Fox News he was not sure if children benefitted from the jab.
'We have to get back into schools, they have to get open,' he said.
