Moderna is ready to provide vaccines for children under 5 years old

This is the announcement of the CEO of Moderna pharmaceutical company.

It is expected that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will hold a meeting in June to consider Moderna’s proposal.

If the FDA approves Moderna’s vaccine, it will be the first time that parents in the US can have children under the age of 5 vaccinated against COVID-19.

Research shows that Moderna’s vaccine for children, at one-quarter of the adult dose, safely stimulates immune responses in children aged 6 months to 5 years.

However, the effectiveness of the vaccine is currently quite modest for this age group compared to adults.
