LAUSD to offer Voluntary COVID Vaccines to Kids 5 to 11
|
|
The Los Angeles Unified School District announced Tuesday, Nov. 2, it will begin offering COVID-19 vaccines to children ages 5 to 11 next week, though it’s not currently requiring students in this age group to get the shots.
The announcement came shortly after the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention gave final approval for the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine to be administered to 5- to 11-year-olds under an emergency use authorization at a third of the regular dose for adults and teens.
The district will begin deploying mobile vaccination teams on Monday to administer the vaccines to children as young as 5. Then, starting Nov. 16, LAUSD will have 13 school-based clinics offering the vaccines.
