Coronavirus vaccines may be available in the fall for U.S. children as young as 6 months, drugmakers say. Pfizer and Moderna are testing their vaccines in children younger than 12 years old, and are expected to have results in hand for children ages 5-11 by September.
Pfizer announced Tuesday that it was moving to test its vaccine in children ages 5-12 years. It will begin testing the vaccine in infants as young as 6 months in the next few weeks.
