We are New York parents against mandating the COVID-19 vaccine for our children.

Vaccine should be an INFORMED DECISION.

On October 26th, 2021 the FDA advisors voted 17-0 to approve the Pfizer vaccine for 5 to 11-year-olds with one advisor who abstained from voting. One of the FDA advisor's, Dr. Eric Rubin, outlined his support in saying, "We're never gonna learn how safe the vaccine is until we start giving it. That's the way it goes."

We are New York State parents who are advocating for vaccine CHOICE for our children. We will NOT ACCEPT any mandates put on our children and we DEMAND your acknowledgement and support in this decision. 

According to PATCH.COM, Governor Kathy Hochul says:

"We cannot do anything to endanger our children," she said. "It's like putting your kids in a car on a busy highway with no seat belt, or sending out a young, inexperienced driver, and saying 'Good luck.' Keeping them unvaccinated in a global pandemic is something I can't fathom as a parent. "Vaccinations, she said, are akin to seat belts, bike helmets, and car seats.
When asked Hochul if she would mandate vaccinations for young people in that age group, she said, "I'm open to all options. "While she said her initial inclination was to make the decision voluntary for parents. "But if circumstances change and the numbers continue to go up, "I'm willing to consider anything," she said.

It is clear that the current vaccinations DO NOT protect against all variants of COVID-19. It is obvious more time needs to pass to study the possible long term effects of the vaccination before choosing to put it into the bodies of our children.

Our tax dollars mean so much to you, please DO NOT force us out of NY, give parents a CHOICE for their children who are too young to have a VOICE and understand what is going on in current times.
