On May 12, the Western States Scientific Safety Review Workgroup agreed to extend COVID-19 vaccine eligibility to people ages 12 and older.
The workgroup concluded that the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine is “safe and effective in this age group and supports its use.”
It’s important to note, the only vaccine approved for people 12 through 17 years is the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. You can search for vaccination by manufacturer here.
