COVID19 Vaccines for 5 to 11 year olds
/We are very hopeful that within the next week children age 5 to 11 years old will be eligible for the Pfizer COVID19 Vaccine. We will be having indoor vaccine clinics at our office, similar to what we have done for the influenza vaccine. The dose is different for this age group so we will NOT be able to offer COVID19 vaccines for patients 12 and older. They can easily schedule an appointment through the mass vax finder website. We will send out a notification once we have more information.
We know a lot of you have questions about the safety and effectiveness of the vaccine in children. Below we have some great resources put together by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the CDC about the COVID19 Vaccine.
Be on the lookout for messages through mychart about how to schedule your child’s COVID19 vaccine once it is approved.
