CACHE, Okla. (TNN) - On Wednesday, the CDC recommended the use of the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine on kids between the ages of 12 and 15.
The Comanche County Health Department is already making a push to make that vaccine available to schools in southwest Oklahoma starting Monday.
Brandie Combs from the Comanche County Health Department said this population is more difficult to vaccinate because kids will need parental consent, but they’re trying to make it easier by planning the clinics either before or after school.
