DENVER - Governor Jared Polis released a statement following reports that the Pfizer vaccine is effective and safe for children aged 5 - 11 years of age.
“Given that the country is currently experiencing a pandemic, the FDA should cancel their weekend plans and postpone other agenda items to meet immediately to review the data and if the vaccine is found effective and safe for children aged 5-11, as it already is for everyone aged 12 and above, the FDA should move forward right away with approval. We want to end the pandemic now and there is no time to waste.”
