Did you know about the race to give kids more shots or vaccines?
Well, it’s not really a race to really give more shots…
The Race to Give Kids More Shots
It’s a race to make it seem like kids are just getting more shots than they really get to scare parents away from vaccinating and protecting their kids.
So who’s winning?
Until very recently, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr had the lead in the race, as he pushed “the number of shots to over 100!”
Of course, kids don’t get 100 vaccines or 100 shots, no matter the type of vaccine they are getting.
To get to 100 shots, in addition to typical anti-vaccine math to inflate the number of doses, he is likely adding in yearly COVID vaccines and COVID booster doses – something that isn’t recommended for any kids!
But this claim helped Kennedy beat out the old record for shot inflation propaganda – 72 shots.
There were a few years when the true record holder was in doubt though…
Not surprisingly, even anti-vaccine influencers couldn’t agree on how many shots kids were getting!
Still, records are made to be broken…
So who’s winning now?
Peter McCullough has come out swinging and was briefly the new champion!
He says that kids get 108 shots!
And he goes so far as saying that they get 13 shots at one visit!!!
Of course, none of this is true.
“The whole secret lies in confusing the enemy, so that he cannot fathom our real intent.”
Sun Tzu, The Art of War
We don’t even have 13 different vaccines to give a toddler between the ages of one and two years!
Ironically, McCullough gave this little speech about vaccines at the Calvary Chapel in Chattanooga, TN in his “The Battle to Uncover the Truth” event.
Peter McCullough was quickly toppled from his perch by Jane Ruby, who claims that children get 200 shots!
Shots that she thinks are part of a depopulation plan to shift wealth out of the middle class…
How Many Shots Do Kids Really Get?
But if kids don’t really get 72 or 100 or 108 shots, just how many do they get?
With yearly flu shots, which accounts for at least 19 of the doses, through age 18 years, kids can get about 56 shots, with protection against 17 different diseases.
Most kids don’t get that many “shots” though, thanks to combination vaccines.
In fact, using the latest combination vaccines and the nasal spray flu vaccine, your child can get as few as 27 individual shots and still be completely vaccinated and protected!
That doesn’t sound as scary as 108 shots though, does it?
The real question for Peter McCullough and the folks who listen to him should be – how many vaccine-preventable preventable diseases do you want your kids to get if they skip or delay getting vaccinated and protected?
