$3,000 and a Toy: Novavax Dangles Incentives to Fill Clinical Trials on Covid Shots for Babies, Kids
Novavax is offering parents up to $3,000 to enroll their children in the vaccine maker’s Phase 2/3 COVID-19 vaccine trial for infants and children ages 6 months to 11 years. The offer also includes a stuffed animal for each child.
The “Hummingbird trial” is testing two primary shots and a booster shot of Novavax’s adjuvanted recombinant spike protein nanoparticle vaccine in children. The study, which began in 2022, is enrolling 3,600 children.
The study, which began in the U.S., is expected to run through 2025 and will be conducted in the U.S. and other countries.
The children will receive three injections and visit the clinic eight times. Parents will participate in three phone calls and keep an e-diary of the vaccine’s effects on their child. Some children will receive two additional injections, for a total of five shots.
åThe study website promises, “You will be compensated for your time and travel regardless of your immigration status. Transportation to the study site may also be provided, as available. No health insurance is required to participate.”
Recruitment materials from Be Well Clinical Studies, which is running one of the U.S. trials, state that compensation can be more than $3,000 over two years.
A 2023 video explaining the study also promises incentives for the children, including “a Covid stuffed animal.”
In the video, a pastor from Louisiana who has four children enrolled in the study said incentives like the stuffed animal made the kids even “more excited than the parents” to participate.
The video features Dr. Jibran Atwi who is running a Hummingbird trial in Lafayette, Louisiana. He encouraged people to participate in the study, because COVID-19 severely affected kids, particularly through lockdowns and lost schooling.
Atwi also said that COVID-19 can be “very disruptive” because if a child has to stay home from school, parents may not be able to go work and the child may have to be isolated from their grandparents.
“Prevention,” he said, “is the best medicine.” He added that there had been an “impressive response” from parents who wanted to participate.
Research shows that young children rarely get sick from COVID-19 and that the illness is typically mild in older kids.
Atwi received over $2 million in research funding in 2023 from Big Pharma, according to the Open Payments website.
Most of that funding came from Genzyme — a Sanofi subsidiary — and from Sanofi, which shares the co-exclusive licensing agreement with Novavax to commercialize its COVID-19 vaccine.
In 2022, Atwi received over $1 million, largely from AstraZeneca and Genzyme.
Last week, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted emergency use authorization to Pfizer and Moderna’s 2024-2025 mRNA COVID-19 shots, but Novavax’s 2024-2025 formula has not yet been authorized.
The FDA has authorized previous versions of the Novavax vaccine, but only for children ages 12 and up.
High payments place children ‘at risk of coercion’
Other pharmaceutical companies that have paid research subjects large sums of money have come under scrutiny. In the United Kingdom (U.K.), Moderna was criticized for initially offering children’s families 1,505 pounds ($1,984 dollars) to participate in its NextCOVE clinical trial, which is testing Moderna’s mRNA vaccine in children ages 12 and up.
The Children’s Covid Vaccine Advisory Council submitted a complaint to the U.K.’s Prescription Medicines Code of Practice Authority (PMCPA) — an industry trade group that regulates ethical practices — raising concerns about “inappropriate financial inducement” offered to children and their parents to participate in the trial.
The council cited concerns raised by the research ethics committee (REC) that approved the clinical study. Regarding the 1,500-pound payment they wrote:
“This amount seems much higher than what would be considered a reasonable reimbursement and therefore would contravene clinical trial regulations. The Medicines for Human Use (Clinical Trials) Regulations (2004) explicitly prohibit the giving of incentives or financial inducements to children…..or their parents.”
The REC said the amount, “placed the children at risk of coercion,” and the organization required that Moderna reduce the offer before recruitment could begin. Moderna reduced the amount to 185 pounds ($244 dollars).
Yet, according to the complaint, at least one pediatrician continued to offer the high enrollment compensation.
The PMCPA sanctioned Moderna, and the case report on the issue is currently pending.
If the PMCPA determines a pharmaceutical company has breached the industry code, it can require the company to pay administrative charges or issue a corrective statement. Or, it may request a compulsory audit of the company.
In the U.S., Be Well is also advertising that it will pay parents $2,400 for enrolling their infants and toddlers, ages 5-23 months, in Moderna’s Rhyme Trial for an mRNA RSV and a human metapneumovirus (hMPV) vaccine.
According to the clinicaltrials.gov website, Be Well withdrew from the Moderna RSV study, but the website is still advertising to recruit participants.
Be Well is run by founder and director Dr. Mark Carlson, a geriatrician, who has taken nearly $3 million in research funding from Big Pharma, mostly from Moderna, since 2021.
Moderna did not respond to The Defender’s inquiry about compensation offered to children’s families to participate in these studies.
Police Seeking Preteen Suspect in Slew of Armed Carjackings Across Philadelphia
Authorities are searching for suspects involved in a slew of armed carjackings across Philadelphia, including one who may be just 10 years of age.
The Philadelphia Police Department (PPD) issued an alert following four carjackings at gunpoint that unfolded this month between August 16 and 22.
Investigators believe the harrowing robberies were carried out by the same pair of very young suspects.
PPD released surveillance footage of the brazen thieves in hopes of obtaining helpful information about them.
On August 16, just before 10 p.m., a man sitting outside his vehicle was accosted by the suspects, at least one of whom was carrying a handgun. They proceeded to steal his car.
On August 18, at around 2 a.m., the suspects forced a man out of his vehicle at gunpoint and stole the car.
On August 21, at around 4:45 a.m., a man sitting in his parked car was approached by the suspects, who tapped on his window with a firearm and then took his vehicle.
Police say the suspects had just been involved in an accident moments prior while driving the car they had stolen on August 18.
On August 22, just before 6 a.m., a 74-year-old woman was attacked and robbed at gunpoint by the suspects.
The victim was shoved to the ground before the suspects stole her wallets, keys, and vehicle.
The suspects are described by PPD thusly:
Suspect #1: Black male, thin build, 17 years old, 5’08” tall
Suspect #2: Black male, 10-12 years old, 4’8″-5’00″ tall with puffy hair

Somali Migrants Launch Multiple Knife Attacks in Germany on Same Day
Somali migrants were arrested for perpetrating knife attacks in separate incidents across Germany on the same day this week, according to reports.
On Monday afternoon, an intoxicated African began harassing and “coughing” at people outside a market in Waltershausen, BILD reports.
When a man asked the Somali to stop being a menace, the suspect reportedly slashed him with a knife.
“I will kill you and your family,” the Somali yelled, inflicting a wound to the man’s neck.
Bystanders intervened and police arrested the 27-year-old suspect.
The public prosecutor’s office in Erfurt is investigating whether the attack warrants an attempted manslaughter charge against the Somali, who was already known to authorities and has been convicted of prior violent offenses.
The victim was treated for non-life threatening injuries.
Hours later and roughly 100 miles away in the city of Plauen, another Somali armed with a knife began wreaking havoc.
The 23-year-old African reportedly became irate when he was barred from entering a newspaper and lottery kiosk in the city.
After a brief altercation with a 64-year-old man at the entrance, the Somali left.
He later returned carrying a large blade, which he held to the chest of a 77-year-old employee while demanding to know the whereabouts of the 64-year-old.
The elderly man managed to fetch an animal defense spray and the Somali fled the scene.
He was arrested a short time later and could face charges.
The elderly shop worker suffered minor knife wounds to his chest.

‘I Will Kill You and Your Families’ – Somali Migrant Stabs German Man in the Neck in Small Town, 30 Police Officers Make Arrest
In yet another knife attack involving a foreigner, a Somali man stabbed a 46-year-old man in the neck outside a supermarket in the small town of Waltershausen. Thirty police officers arrived on scene and took him into custody.
At 5:30 p.m., the incident started with the 27-year-old Somali man purposefully coughing on customers at random inside the “Netto” discount supermarket. He then began threatening them and randomly entering into arguments with various customers.
When a 46-year-old man asked the Somali man to stop, the Somali man allegedly threatened to kill him. The victim then told the Somali to calm down, at which point the Somali stabbed him in the neck, according to the Welt newspaper.
??‼️ “Germany is no longer a safe country… The migration crisis is first and foremost a crime crisis.”

The victim was able to evade the attacker, thus preventing further stab wounds, and other witnesses nearby intervened to stop the Somali. The victim was able to escape with only minor injuries, despite suffering a stab wound to the neck.
The incident triggered a major police operation, with 30 police officers arriving on scene to arrest the Somali man, who was intoxicated. He is now being charged with attempted manslaughter, violent disorder, and threats. He is known for previous crimes as well and has convictions on his record.
“The accused reportedly said to the victim and other people, ‘I will kill you and your families.’ He is then said to have stabbed the victim in the neck with a knife and knowingly accepted his death,” said a public prosecutor.
He faces 15 years in prison.
The small town, which is 50 kilometers west of Erfurt in the eastern state of Thuringia, is one of the strongholds of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in the country. Voters will elect a new state government there on Sunday, with the AfD expected to get at least 30 percent of the vote.
The stabbing attack follows a wave of knife crimes involving migrants, including the Solingen knife attacks which killed three Germans at the Festival of Diversity a week ago. Foreigners now account for a record share of violent crimes in the country, as per government statistics from 2023.
?? Germans say they’re “shocked” about the mass stabbing by a Syrian national at the “Festival of Diversity” in Solingen.

But there is nothing to be shocked about. Knife crime in Germany is soaring, predominately due to mass immigration.
That is a statistical fact. pic.twitter.com/NWAxJp2gBe
