We are thrilled the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine has been approved for children ages 5-11 years. We are also aware that many families have been anticipating this and want to vaccinate their children as soon as possible.
We look forward to administering the Covid-19 vaccine to our patients ages 5 through 11 years in our office. Unfortunately, we do not have an expected ship date yet from the State of Connecticut. As soon as we are confirmed on when the vaccine will arrive at our office, we will post dates for vaccine clinics at Willows.
There are also other opportunities to get the vaccine locally, including local pharmacies and hospital sponsored clinics. You can locate other sites giving the Covid-19 vaccine to children ages 5-11 though the CT Vaccine portal.
Our advice at this time is to get the vaccine at your first available opportunity wherever you and your child are comfortable.
Please do not hesitate to call your doctor, PA, or nurse if you have any questions!
