- This lower-dose Pfizer vaccine is the only COVID-19 vaccine to be authorized and recommended for use in children aged 5-11 years and should be administered as a two-dose series, three weeks apart - just as it is for people aged 12 and up.
- Appointments for patient's second dose will be scheduled on site.
- All children under age 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
