Laura Hohm, a mother of two young daughters, says the constantly changing goalposts for vaccinating children against COVID-19 has been frustrating.
But last night, a panel of advisers to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration recommended allowing vaccines for kids as young as 6 months, including Hohm's younger child and roughly 18 million other kids throughout the nation.
Advisers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are set to meet Saturday, where they will decide on a formal recommendation that could make shots available to kids as soon as next week. "She started doing swim lessons which has been great," Pearson told Battiste."She's been able to come with me to go grocery shopping. She's also gotten to participate in ballet with some of her friends and it's just really opened the door for her to have a much larger, enriching experience in life." Kaiser Family Foundation
