The first step of emergency use authorization of Pfizer vaccine for 12-15-year-old adolescents, recommendation from the FDA, has happened. The next step is for the CDC to approve the use and we should receive an update on that today.
This would allow another 5% of the U.S. population, raising the total to 85%, to be eligible to receive the free vaccine.
