CDC Says Kids As Young As 12 Should Get The Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine CDC Says Kids As Young As 12 Should Get The Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine he Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine be given to adolescents ages 12–15.
CDC Director Rochelle Walensky issued a statement saying, “The CDC now recommends the vaccine be used among this population, and providers may begin vaccinating them right away.”
An independent federal advisory committee on Wednesday had voted — 14 in favor with one recusal — to recommend that the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine be quickly approved for those as young as 12.
Making younger people eligible could open a new front in the fight against COVID-19 as many states follow the recommendation.

Pfizer is the first vaccine manufacturer to gain emergency use authorization for younger Americans after it demonstrated in a March clinical trial that its vaccine was 100% effective in preventing COVID-19 in study participants who were ages 12 to 15.
“We’re ready,” President Biden said in an address Wednesday afternoon. “This new population is going to find the vaccine rollout fast and efficient. As of tomorrow, more than 15,000 pharmacies across this country will be ready to vaccinate this age group.”

While publicly waiting for the CDC and FDA authorization process to play out, the Biden administration began quietly laying the groundwork to immediately roll out vaccines to adolescents.
That included aggressively working to sign up pediatricians and family practitioners to begin administering doses to their patients, making sure pharmacies are ready to serve younger patients and reaching out to Medicaid providers, since 40% of the nation’s children are insured through the Children’s Health Insurance Program.
Notably, a White House official tells NPR, the administration plans to make sure smaller packages of Pfizer vaccines get to doctors’ offices as soon as they become available. This has been a significant obstacle, since the Pfizer vaccine is currently delivered just in packages holding nearly 1,200 doses, more than many private practitioners can handle. Pfizer has said it plans to begin shipping smaller packages by the end of this month.
As summer winds down, there will be an additional back-to-school push to reach young people before they return to classrooms. The administration plans to work to have COVID-19 vaccines offered as part of annual physicals and sports physicals that kids and teens are often required to get before school starts.
