Dr. Kavita Patel joins Andrea Mitchell to share data and emphasize the need for children under five to be vaccinated against Covid-19, after Senator Ted Cruz took to Twitter criticizing a Sesame Street PSA in which Elmo, who has been three and a half years-old since 1984, got his first Covid shot. “We’ve had over 400 deaths in the under five age group eligible for a vaccine, and it’s one of the top 10 leading causes of death in that age group,” says Patel. “The facts do support not only a vaccine but having your children protected no matter whether they were previously infected or not infected.”

Ted Cruz Feuds With Elmo Over PSA For Toddler Covid Vaccines
source
Elmo is a little slow ..
Finally! An opponent worthy of Ted Cruz both in Stature and Intellect! It's safe to say that the "gentleman" from the great State of Texas, would be soundly "Trumped"! lol…
Anyone who feuds with a puppet…….well……..there is a place for them, with locked doors and keys
America is doomed by educated fools and uneducated mopes who lack critical thinking skills. If I hear one more person refer to the " past pandemic" I wont be responsible for my actions
My nephew who dust turned for got Covid ended up in the hospital for six days and the doctor said that because when children are little if they have and there anything underlying it generally is affected by the Covid so he also ended up from the Covid a kidney infection which he is still taking anabiotic‘s for three weeks later and he has Covid has finally at least the other symptoms like the cough and some of the other issues have started to disappear but the doctor said he definitely tested positive for Covid and within four days of testing positive he ended up with the kidney infection and a bunch of other little random things thanks to the Covid. If my sister was not so very on top of things he could’ve easily gotten much sicker even died if she had not taken him to the hospital and basically got them to do all kinds of tests and determine exactly what was going on and it took like I said six days to get him well enough to leave the hospital. All I can say is this that her next oldest son who is five just turned six had the Covid vaccine already and he got Covid felt bad for about five days had a slight fever a little bit of a cough and he was just fine and he’s got an underlying condition of asthma and yet having that vaccine made a lot of difference in the length of the Covid and the severity of it. I think all parents should check the information and read up on it before they take their children and talk to their doctor but I don’t think it’s a bad idea and like they said it is one of the leading causes of childhood death under five which is kind of sad.
Are vaccines "liberal", where's the sense in his stand.
If Ted don't like it. Stop watching it.
MSM presstitutes continue to enable innumerable acts of menticide, democide & infanticide
How is it that a person like Cruz is always getting elected I don't understand this is it the dumb people electing him or what I don't understand this man is a disgrace to the country get him out of office vote him out and keep him out
Where are the trolls defending their master. Of course , if cruz I would like to shoot elmo then….!
One is smart and intelligent.
The other is a tool.
in the fight between Elmo and Ted Cruz, it is truly sad that Elmo has to engage in a battle of wits with such an unarmed person.
Next time Rafael flees one of his Republican created Texas disasters we should refuse to allow him back in the country.
Which one is Cruz ?????
I wouldn't take this lady Dr.'s Opinion on something as important as your kids. Dispute her claims and the way they both framed Thomas comments. Why would a serious Dr. have an elmo doll and engage in this political nonsense on such an important topic. You are insane if you listen solely to this lady with elmo schtick.
Fled should have stayed in Cancun.
Hey Doctor Elmo, show us the data that over 400 healthy children under 5 with no underlining illness simply died of COVID. Show us the data on this!
This child propaganda!! You should all be ashamed for using a classic children’s show for political & corporate gains… How could one love that the doctor “happen to have” an Elmo doll in the background. PROPAGANDA
Propaganda
Msmbc will make corrections on air…."Justice Thomas was reading an article and not written opinion "….
What's wrong with this guy , he first attacked big bird for mentioning the coivd vaccine and now he is attacking Elmo because of the coivd vaccine. Ether Cancun Cruz has nothing better to do than attacking puppet characters 🤣 or he has a mental problem because attacking puppets characters about the coivd vaccine is not normal only crazy people would react like that
"FACTS?" SINCE WHEN do they know anything about "FACTS? THEY keep changing "the facts" almost daily
So Cancun Ted valiantly sallied forth to pitch his intelligence against Little Elmo and lost big time.
the most retrograd and ignorant politician
400,000 excess mortality per month is ten standard deviations outside of normal. That's right. A ten sigma event. And they tried to mandate it to all members of the military. Clearly, the mandates are and were treasonous policy. I cannot wait to try the evil ones who created the <you know what – can't say it because of evil censorship>
Shot has insanely low efficacy for everyone, especially after a week.
While you are fact checking hit us with those excess deaths numbers and rise in SADS cases.
Ted Cruz is a sucker for punishment. First he lost to the number one Muppet in Big Bird. Now he goes after the second most popular Muppet in Elmo.
Did Ted Cruz not get any hugs when he was a kid?
Elmo: This is what happens when tool tries to undermine public health.
Bert: Are you sure Ted won't complain about me and Ernie?
Ernie: No MTG will do that for him
In Australia my children all under 12 got a letter with their name on it in the mail. It was from the government.. they were so excited but I opened it !!! guess what it was for ???!!!
In other news, Elmo now has myocarditis.
But that's perfectly normal. Keep propagandizing for Big Pharma, PBS!
No wonder mainstream media is failing.
does Elmo still get a hug if he doesn't want to take it?
When a puppet makes a better leader than you
Covid vaccines will help you protect u from getting extremely sick.
Targeting toddlers with the Graphene HYDROXIDE, Covid19, US Military's bioweapon.
Elmo passed from the Covid19 vaccine, that's a clone.
Bro made his own diss track
