Local pediatricians are teaming up in a new Pike County Health Department campaign to promote the safety and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines, debunk common vaccine myths and encourage parents and guardians to vaccinate their 12-15 year-old children. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved an emergency use authorization in early May to support the use of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine among children who are 12 years old and older, and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) subsequently approved the usage of the vaccine on younger Americans. All Kentuckians who are 12 years old and older can receive the two-dose Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, and all Kentuckians 16 years old and older can receive the two-dose Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, as well as the single-dose Johnson&Johnson COVID-19 vaccine.
