COVID Vaccines and Kids with Eric France, MD, CMO of the Colorado Dept. of Public Health & Environment (S4:E32)

Last week, the federal government took a final step toward making the Pfizer COVID vaccine available to adolescents in the U.S. when the CDC formally recommended the vaccine for use in children ages 12 to 15. The approval of the vaccine for our adolescent patients is exciting. It also presents a unique opportunity for us, as pediatricians, to spend time engaging with families to address their questions and share our confidence in this vaccine.

In this episode, we are fortunate to be joined by Dr. Eric France, Chief Medical Officer at the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment.
