Children aged between five and 11 in England will be offered a Covid vaccine, the UK government has confirmed. This follows similar moves by Wales and Scotland earlier this week.
The Pfizer vaccine was approved as safe and effective for children by the UK’s Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency in December. But the JCVI previously only recommended the vaccine to vulnerable five to 11-year-olds.
Millions of children aged between five and 11 have been vaccinated in other countries worldwide such as the US and across Europe.
We’d like to hear from parents across the UK about their views on vaccinations for children aged 5-11. What is your reaction to the move in Scotland and Wales? Will you be vaccinating your children? Do you have any concerns?
