Interior Health to begin offering pediatric COVID-19 vaccinations in Kamloops
KAMLOOPS — This week, Interior Health will begin offering Pfizer-BioNtech pediatric vaccines for children aged 5 to 11.
Interior Health Medical Health Officer Dr. Carol Fenton says the Health Canada approved vaccinations contain a lower dose but use the same mRNA technology.
Like adult vaccines, the pediatric immunizations will be a two-dose series, with the second dose available eight weeks after the first.
