Some parents say 'hard pass' on vaccinating children against COVID-19 - KTVB.com

Phillips said that he’s also concerned about the potential side effects the vaccine could have on his daughter, short and long term.

“It’s really important that there’s a lot of data and showing how safe the vaccine really is and that just simply comes over time,” Christ said.

Christ and Phillips said that potential of side effects, lack of data and the quick rollout of the vaccine is enough for them to pass on the vaccine for them and their children.

“The things that were not rushed, were the manufacturing of the vaccine, the tests in these first, second and third trials, those were not rushed at all, we know this vaccine is very safe,” said Bigford.

Bigford said when it comes to the COVID 19 vaccine it shouldn't be about beliefs but about separating myths from facts
