Vaccines for children ages 5 – 11 have been authorized

and recommended by the FDA and CDC.

Now what?

While some parents are excited to get their children vaccinated others may feel hesitant for any reason.

Today, one of our regular, trusted pediatric experts is here to answer your questions.

Also, we discuss other CDC developments, including this morning’s announcement from the White House clarifying new COVID policies.

Under these federal rules, workers at larger businesses will have to get vaccinated by January 4th or face regular testing and mask requirements.
