The New York Times continues to be the leader in Fake News.
This time they really messed up.

Doesn’t make the roots any less racist or the theory a
The article addresses that other countries are slowing down on vaccinating children 12-17, either stopping it altogether or just giving one dose. The whole piece is about how other countries are weighing the risks and then in the US we're like nah, let's just do it. pic.twitter.com/LqNsfMtjif
