Families prepare to get children 5-11 vaccinated against COVID after final clearance given
The CDC is now recommending that children get the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine.
There have been 1.9 million COVID cases among children ages 5-11 and 94 confirmed deaths. Some parents are rejoicing that their children in that age group are one step closer to being safer.
“I am relieved. I knew it was coming based off the data and the research. A little bit of an exhale for my friends and my family who have kids in the age group,” Jessica Romanosky said.
