Pfizer seeks emergency authorization for its COVID vaccine for kids. What's the timeline?
Pfizer formally applies to the FDA for use of its COVID-19 vaccine in children ages 5 to 11. If regulators agree, shots could begin within weeks.There is no timetable for how long the process could take. Last year, Pfizer submitted its application for emergency use of the vaccine for adults on Nov. 20, and it was OK’d on Dec. 11 — three weeks later. Pfizer submitted the data for vaccine use in children to the FDA last month, before filing the emergency use application.
