Extra Edition: Vaccines for Youngest Children.
As California and the rest of the country are rolling out their plans to vaccinate children under 5, some parents may need some convincing. What are the risks from the coronavirus to children? How will this vaccine be different from the one for other ages? How long is immunity expected to last? What are the common side effects? A public health expert from California discusses this news. in another conversation, a Colorado official comments on the surge of Covid infections and hospitalizations in the San Luis Valley, Denver and other areas at high risk. She also talks about their efforts to vaccinate the youngest children and respond questions like: Who should be in line to get a second booster shot? How can people protect themselves?
