COVID-19 Vaccine for 6–11-Year-Olds

 We have been waiting for COVID-19 vaccines to be approved for use in the US for younger children, and the CDC recommended vaccination of 6-11 year-old children on November 2, 2021. In this episode, we partner with the EM Pulse Podcast™ and discuss the side effects, the immune response, and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccination in this age group with Dr. Julia Magaña, Associate Professor of Pediatric Emergency Medicine at UC Davis.

 This episode was written by Drs. Julia Magaña and Dean Blumberg.
