WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is expected to authorize Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine for young adults age 12 and older by next week, according to a federal official and a person familiar with the process, setting up shots for many before the beginning of the next school year.

The announcement is set to come barely a month after the company found that its shot, which is already authorized for those age 16 and older, also provided protection for the younger group.

The federal official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to preview the FDA's action, said the agency was expected to expand its emergency use authorization for Pfizer's two-dose vaccine by early next week, and perhaps even sooner. The person familiar with the process, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal matters, confirmed the timeline and added that it is expected that the FDA will approve Pfizer’s use by even younger children sometime this fall.

I know parents of the OT will be lining up to get their teenagers vaccinated.

Q: What do you call a parent that puts an unknown vaccine in their children for a virus that doesn't effect them?


A: Child Abuser

they have to open up broader segments of the population so the media can continue to talk about vaccination rates and how we aren't at a high enough level for unmasking and such

There was a report from the NY Post I believe that said Pfizer has already made $3.5 billion in the covid vaccine

Wonder how much money Fauci made

I guess the next safe assumption is that all children must be vaccinated before returning to school next Fall?

I love reading the news story comments on Facebook about any vaccine stories, but especially any talking about moving to younger ages. Brings out all the FB MDs and nut cases.

I'll wait until the vaccine is officially approved and off the "for emergency use" designation by the FDA. Until then, thanks guinea pigs.

It’s why stuff still gets played up. Can’t continue to use and extend the EUA without an emergency.

To give to the population that is at least vulnerability to the virus.

The virus isn’t hitting the kids (thankfully), not sure why they need to be used as lab rats.

Let's have uncle Sam pull the liability waiver on the vaccine for children and I might consider it...

If you are the parent who takes their kid to get this vaccine you should have your arse whipped.
