FDA authorizes use of Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for children ages 12 to 15
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Wednesday recommended use of Pfizer-BioNTech’s COVID-19 vaccine in 12- to 15-year-olds, CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky announced. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Monday, May 10, approved Pfizer’s request to amend its emergency use authorization to include children ages 12 to 15. The CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) earlier Wednesday voted to recommend the vaccine for use in that age group.
Sonoma County will start vaccinating 12- to 15-year-olds Thursday morning with the Pfizer vaccine. Appointments should be available on Myturn.ca.gov starting Thursday.
