The speaker discusses the question of vaccinating children aged 5-11 against COVID-19. The professor argues in favor of vaccinating them, citing the need to protect children who may require intensive care. However, the other speaker clarifies that currently, there are only 10 children aged 0-9 and 2 children aged 10-19 in intensive care, far from the hundreds mentioned. Even during the peak of the pandemic, there were only 48 children in intensive care out of 7,000 patients. The professor also claims that half the world is vaccinating children aged 5-11, but the other speaker refutes this, stating that while several countries have started vaccinating this age group, they remain a minority. Israel, for example, only recently opened vaccination for this age group due to a lack of sufficient data on the benefits and risks.
