I read the “Open Letter” by 12 doctors to parents, casting doubts on the efficacy and safety of the mRNA vaccines. Eleven of them subsequently retracted their letter, claiming it was their own “humble ponderings”. As a doctor, I am aghast and disappointed by the unscientific and unprofessional way in which these doctors have interpreted scientific evidence and conducted themselves. It creates confusion and fear in the public and propagated myths and untruths.
I’m glad to see other fellow doctors stepping up and speaking out against such untruths. I urge all of us to get our information from reliable sources. The fight against COVID-19 will continue to evolve as new data and development present themselves. We need to navigate this with scientific rigor and not let our emotions or personal biases create more confusion.
In response to the open letter, the Expert Committee on COVID-19 Vaccines have clarified that Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine is safe and effective for those aged 12 to 15.
