It is shocking to learn that America’s Big Bird officially joined the COVID-19 vaccin war.
Sesame Street — the critically-acclaimed and breathtakingly informative infectious and emerging diseases show for kids — has launched a campaign to shill for children as young as five to be vaccinated. Even “better,” Big Bird, along with Elmo, Grover, and Oscar the Grouch, appeared on CNN — who knew? — town hall to pimp the “Sesame Street” vax for kids campaign.
RedState reports that this CNN is the exact same one as RedState did in late October. It was the CNN outrageously hyped in a headline
People who are vaccinated for COVID-19 have a lower risk of dying. From any causeStudy findings
The Saturday morning town hall, titled “The ABCs of COVID Vaccines,” was hosted by an alleged expert who knows almost as much about COVID vaccines for kids as Big Bird and his “Sesame Street” pals — CNN chief medical correspondent Sanjay Gupta. CNN anchor Erica Hill was also joined by Gupta. Hill is another COVID expert. The puppets allowed them to answer questions regarding pediatric COVID vaccines.
Steve Krakauer is a veteran journalist and podcaster. He tweeted this clip of the CNN Town Hall, where Big Bird appears as a 6 year-old. is encouraged to agree and then criticized.
CNN teamed up this morning with Sesame Street for a COVID vaccine “town hall” to convince 5-to-11-year-olds and their parents to get the young children vaccinated.

“My wing is feeling a little sore, but it’ll give my body an extra protective boost that keeps me and others healthy,” the official Big Bird Twitter account tweeted. “Ms. @EricaRHill even said I’ve been getting vaccines since I was a little bird. I had no idea!”
The COVID-19 vaccine was given to me today. While my left wing may feel a little tender, the COVID-19 vaccine will provide an extra protection boost for me and other healthy people.
Ms. @EricaRHill even said I’ve been getting vaccines since I was a little bird. I had no idea!

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz quickly — and correctly — called the “Sesame Street” vax for kids campaign exactly what it is in a seven-word tweetThis is:
Government propaganda…for your 5 year old!
These are the things I discovered. tweetFrom some random source vax-for-kids evangelistCruz being attacked is funny
Right Wing Covidiots like Ted Cruz are lashing out at Big Bird for advocating children’s vaccines. They claim that this is ‘propaganda aimed at 5 year olds.’
Ask me a question: How many five-year-olds are able to have their own Twitter account? You are a complete idiot!You are a moron!
Wait — who’s the “moron” — or “idiot” as it were — here?
Then there’s Joe Biden.
RedState’s Thursday report revealed that Biden made an unveiled threat linking vaccines for children to school closings. And, incidentally, the CNN “Sesame Street” town hall happened just days after shots started going into the arms of children ages five to 11, following the Food and Drug Administration on Oct. 29 granting emergency use authorization to Pfizer-BioNTech’s shot for young kids.
In a June Op-Ed entitled “How to be a good citizen”, Consider Thinking Twice before Giving the COVID Vax To Healthy Kids.Martin Makary MD was editor-in-chief at MedpageToday and questioned the wisdom in vaccinating healthy young children. Johns Hopkins Hospital physician Dr. Makary wrote the following:
“Based on the data to date, there’s no compelling case for it right now.
“Given that the risk of a healthy child dying is between zero and infinitesimally rare, it’s understandable that many parents are appropriately asking, why vaccinate healthy kids at all?”
Yet, from Big Bird to Biden — two characters with the same degree of knowledge of COVID and vaccines — the left continues to blindly push the ever-loving hell out of vaccinating America’s 5-year-olds. It’s amazing.
