St. Louis County Public Health Prepares to Vaccinate Teens Aged 12-15
Vaccinations Would Begin Once the ACIP Votes to Move Forward with Pfizer Vaccinations for Teens Aged 12-15
May 11, 2021
DULUTH, Minn. – The FDA now says the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine is safe and offers strong protection for younger teens based on the testing of 2,000 volunteers.
Shots could begin soon once a federal vaccine panel issues recommendations for using the vaccine in that age bracket.
St. Louis County Public Health is already planning.
Officials with the county say they’re looking to begin vaccination clinics in schools as soon as next week.
