The Food and Drug administration has expanded the emergency use authorisation of the Pfizer vaccine in the US… paving the way for kids as young as 12 to receive the jab

Until now, the Pfizer vaccine had only been authorised for those over the age of 16… but now those aged 12-15 will also be eligible to receive it

In late March, PFIZER announced clinical trials found “100 per cent efficacy and robust antibody responses” in study participants in the 12 to 15 age bracket.
