Moderna and Pfizer Authorized for Young Children  

On Sunday, June 19, 2022, the Western States Scientific Safety Review Workgroup (WWSSRW) authroized of the Pfizer and Moderna COVID-19 vaccine for children aged six months and older. After extensive review, the WSSSRW concluded that both vaccines are safe and effective at preventing COVID-19. Their recommendation was the final step before vaccines could become available in California for this new age group.  

Marin County can expect the rollout of vaccines for young children later this week. Parents should contact their pediatrician about vaccine options and the appropriate timing to have their child vaccinated for COVID-19, especially if they are due for other routine pediatric vaccinations. Learn more on the  COVID-19 Vaccine for Pediatrics webpage.
