CDC chief Dr. Rochelle Walensky was forced to correct US Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s inflated claim that there are 100,000 pediatric COVID-19 hospitalizations.
CDC chief Dr. Rochelle Walensky on Sunday was forced to correct US Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s dramatically inflated claim that there are 100,000 pediatric COVID-19 hospitalizations.
“First of all, the vast majority of children who are in the hospital are unvaccinated, and for those children who are not eligible for vaccination, we do know they are most likely to get sick with COVID if their family members aren’t vaccinated,” she said, pushing the Biden administration’s mantra that the unvaxxed are fueling the continued pandemic.
“We have over 100,000 children, which we’ve never had before, in serious condition and many on ventilators,” the justice said. Justice Sonya Sotomayor made her overinflated hospital claim during oral arguments in a case involving the White House’s vaccine mandate for private businesses with at least 100 employees.“And do you feel responsibility as the CDC director to correct a very big mischaracterization by one of the Supreme Court justices?” he asked.
