FDA Authorizes Updated COVID-19 Booster Shots for Children as Young as 6 Months

The Food and Drug Administration on Thursday expanded access to the updated COVID-19 booster shot to children as young as 6 months old.

“More children now have the opportunity to update their protection against COVID-19 with a bivalent COVID-19 vaccine, and we encourage parents and caregivers of those eligible to consider doing so – especially as we head into the holidays and winter months where more time will be spent indoors,” FDA Commissioner Robert Califf said in a statement.
