COVID Corner
Children ages 6 months through 5 years are now able to receive COVID-19 vaccines. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has endorsed the recommendation from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, so now all Americans ages 6 months and older are eligible to be vaccinated.
First, second and third doses of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine are available for children ages 6 months through 5 years by appointment Monday - Friday at Heritage Valley Pediatrics in Chippewa/Beaver Falls. Walk-in times are not available for vaccines and boosters. A consent form, signed by a parent or guardian, is required and will be provided at the time of the appointment. Please note that a separate appointment is needed for each child in a family.
