25 children dead due to Corona vaccination - Biontech collapses on the stock market
25 children dead due to Corona vaccination - Biontech collapses on the stock market
The health authorities of the Trump administration see deaths of 25 children as a result of the Corona vaccination. In the coming week, the results of the investigation are to be presented that are supposed to show a connection, the Washington Post reports exclusively on Friday.
The share of the biotechnology group Biontech collapsed on the NASDAQ and in Frankfurt. The US-listed depository receipts (ADRs) fell by around 3 percent to 105.28 US dollars, while the German share price also came under pressure and fell by 4.3 percent at times. Biontech now expects sales of between 1.7 and 2.2 billion euros for 2025 – well below analysts' expectations of about 2.5 billion euros and a decline from the previous year's 2.75 billion euros. The Mainz-based company had achieved fame and fortune with the Pfizer vaccine Comirnaty during the Corona pandemic.
Facts – What can be proven?
- Reputable international media reports are currently reporting that US health authorities are examining whether there could be a link between COVID-19 vaccinations and the deaths of up to 25 children – but these statements are based on media reports on internal plans and unconfirmed data from reporting systems, not on published scientific evidence.
- Shares of vaccine manufacturers such as BioNTech, Pfizer and Moderna fell significantly at times after reports that this possible link was to be discussed before an advisory panel of the CDC. This has triggered a stock market reaction – not direct evidence of an actual cause-and-effect link between vaccination and child mortality.
- The alleged figure of "25 deaths from vaccination" comes from media articles that refer to government insiders and VAERS data (a passive reporting system that does not automatically establish causal relationships). Such preliminary reports are criticized by independent experts as unconfirmed and misleading, because reporting systems such as VAERS also store events without a cause-and-effect relationship.
- There is no scientifically recognized, published report that clearly proves that vaccinations directly killed 25 children. The FDA's previous statements, which could link several deaths internally, have not yet been publicly supported by data and are considered questionable by experts.
📌 Why do such claims lead to stock market declines?
Share prices of vaccine manufacturers react sensitively to risk signals in public perception and political uncertainty. When it is reported that regulators are investigating possible safety concerns, investors often react quickly with sales – even if the scientific basis is not sound.
📌 What do experts and studies say about the safety of COVID-19 vaccinations in children?
Long-term safety surveys – for example via the CDC reporting system and clinical trials – show that severe side effects in children are very rare and that no clear causal relationship between COVID-19 vaccinations and child mortality has been demonstrated. For example, in studies that analyzed millions of vaccine doses in children, there was no relevant association between death and vaccination.
📌 Classification of the report
Caution with interpretation:
- Reports of possible deaths related to vaccination are currently based on unverified, preliminary internal data and media reports, not on confirmed scientific studies.
- The term "fatal due to vaccination" is scientifically very strong, and without clearly proven data, such a conclusion can be misleading and dangerous.
- Stock reactions reflect market sentiment and risk aversion, not necessarily medical reality.
📌 In short
: The statement "25 children dead due to Corona vaccination - BioNTech collapses" is too simplistic and misleading. There are reports of a review of potential links, and stock prices reacted to it – but there is no confirmed scientific evidence that COVID-19 vaccines have directly killed 25 children. Such conclusions are currently not backed up by verified data.
