India is planning on conducting clinical trials of their vaccine meant for children on about 50 children. Reports have it only 5 children came forward. There is resistance from parents to offer their children for this rather risky activity. Would you give consent for such an activity?

If I had a choice no I would not. Previous vaccines destroyed my sons health

That must have been after the vaccine was already tested.

Make sure the vaccine has been proven safe for children because here millions of people from the age of 12 to the average senior have been vaccinated.

It's fine after the vaccine has been fully tested.

Parents should be educated first about the vaccine , if they don't have proper information , nobody will come forward..

The word 'trial' can put off any parent I think.

I would be conflicted. We dont yet know long term side effects if any on adults. But we do know the effects of catching covid.
