They didn't go through the normal process. So then when you look at the risk of myocarditis, not to mention the other claims that are out there of people being messed up or injured or not the same after the vaccine, again, high-risk people early in the pandemic, it was very clear that the benefits outweigh the risks.

But when you get down to a young, healthy 12-year-old girl, does she really need six COVID vaccine doses in three years?

Well, they weren't too happy with me. Moderna constantly has people at their company trying to reach out to me. And so what is the risk of myocarditis of the COVID booster in a young, healthy person? I I ask that every time I'm engaged on this topic with someone who's like, how dare you not support the vaccination with the COVID booster in young, healthy people? What is that risk of myocarditis?

It's one in 2,200 to one in 2,800. Heart injury from myocarditis. One person in a study of about 2,000 died in an ICU. Two others were admitted to an ICU in the New England Journal. This is the New England Journal. It's not like I'm making... So on a societal level, is there a net benefit or a net harm to giving the COVID booster to a young, healthy population? It's a net harm.

We don't even know if that hospitalization, that's based on data where we don't know if the hospitalization is for COVID or with an incidental COVID positive test.
