GRETNA, Va. â Gretna Drug Company, Inc. is now administering the Pfizer vaccine to children aged 12-17.
Storeowner and registered pharmacist, H. Chapman Brown III, is optimistic about Gretnaâs vaccine clinic as another step toward vaccinating as many people as possible to help staunch the spread of COVID-19.
âThe Pfizer vaccine is currently approved for people 12 and older,â Brown said.
Parents may schedule appointments for their children to receive the Pfizer vaccine, as well as getting vaccinated themselves. Right now, the Moderna vaccine is only being administered to adults.
The vaccine clinic at Gretna Drug has been up and running since Jan. 11, 2021. However, this week marks the first vaccine clinic for children as young as 12 years old to receive their COVID-19 vaccine at Gretna Drug.
