University Health System Pediatrician Dr. Mandie Svatek has answered questions about the COVID-19 vaccine and what it means for children, including how kids have responded to the vaccine so far, her own daughter’s experience in a drug trial and when even younger children may become eligible for the shot.
Days after the Food and Drug Administration expanded Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine for people as young as 12, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention endorsed the shot for 12- to 15-year-olds on Wednesday.
