Wayne County is now offering walk-in COVID-19 vaccinations for kids aged 5-11 at county clinics.
The Wayne County Health Department has already received their first supply of Pfizer-BioNTech (Pfizer) COVID-19 pediatric vaccines, following approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the November 2nd recommendation by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) for Emergency Use Authorization.
