All kids 5 and older are now eligible to get vaccinated. This is a safe and effective vaccine. It has undergone rigorous review, and now has been authorized by FDA and recommended by CDC for kids ages 5-11, after thorough testing for safety in thousands of children.
The COVID-19 vaccine is the best way to keep your child and family safe. Kids are being infected with COVID-19, and some are getting seriously ill or sadly even dying. Even if your child doesn’t get severely ill, they could face long-term health consequences or pass the virus to others. Vaccinating children can help protect family members, including siblings who are not eligible for vaccination and family members who may be at increased risk of getting very sick if they are infected.
Finding a vaccine is easy, and getting vaccinated is free. Parents will be able to find available vaccines at vaccines.gov or by contacting their health care provider or local pharmacy.
