Pfizer formally applied to the FDA for authorization for the emergency use of its COVID-19 vaccine for children ages 5 to 11. The Dose for minors will contain 10 micrograms, in contrast to the 30 micrograms that adults receive. The drugmaker has already announced a robust antibody response in children. Experts estimate that the FDA will issue its decision before the end of October and the vaccine will be applied in early December.
