The nation’s youngest children are getting their chance at vaccines for COVID-19. Shots began Monday at a few locations, though they were expected to ramp up after the Juneteenth federal holiday.
"For the first time now, in this pandemic, nearly every American can now have access to life-saving vaccines. And we're ready," President Joe Biden said on Tuesday from Washington, D.C.President Joe Biden visited a vaccination clinic Tuesday to celebrate that virtually all Americans can now get a COVID-19 shot after the authorization of vaccines for kids under 5 over the weekend.
"The United States is now the first country in the world to offer safe and effective COVID-19 vaccines for children as young as six months old," Biden said at the White House. Addressing parents, Biden said, "I encourage you to talk to the doctor after you make a plan to get your child vaccinated." "Let’s be clear: Elected officials shouldn’t get in the way and can make it more difficult for parents who want their children to be vaccinated and want to protect them and those around them," he said. "This is no time for politics. It’s about parents being able to do everything they can to keep the children safe."
