Are COVID-19 vaccines safe for a 6-year-old child?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

How safe are COVID-19 vaccines for my kid? I want to keep my kid safe both from COVID and vaccine jabs. I do not believe in vaccines. It can affect my child's health. But everyone is insisting on that to get my kid vaccinated. She is 6 years only. Does she require a vaccine? I fear that if the vaccine does something to her, I will lose her. She is my only kid.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Vaccines are only protective, and no vaccine will harm our bodies. Please be scientific in this era of modern science. Give her vaccines and protect her from serious diseases. Remember that the fatal smallpox was eradicated from this world by effective vaccination. Similarly, vaccination keeps many diseases in control, without which the whole population would be endangered.
