Children as young as 12 could be eligible for COVID boosters as soon as tomorrow.
That’s when the CDC is expected to meet to review the FDA's decision to recommend Pfizer's third dose for ages 12 to 15.
The FDA also recommended shortening the waiting period for those 12 and older to get boosted, from 6 months to just 5.
The FDA's decision has parents split in the Hudson Valley and across the region. News 12’s Samantha Crawford is in the Alert Center with your thoughts on the move.
