(WXYZ) â Pfizer s COVID-19 vaccine is now approved for use in children ages 12-15, and Moderna and Pfizer are currently testing their vaccine in children as young as six months old.
Those shots for children between the ages of 12 and 15 will be given out at pharmacies, community centers, hospitals and more.
Your family s pediatrician will also be key in the effort to get those shots in the arms of kids. On Wednesday, MDHHS Chief Health Executive Dr. Joneigh Khaldun urged all primary care physicians to sign up to get the vaccine.
