COVID Shots for Kids Begin in Illinois
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Saturday authorized the COVID-19 vaccine for young children, and the shots are set to begin immediately in Illinois. The age group between six months and 4 years old is the last major demographic to gain approval for the vaccine. Chicago Public Health Director Dr. Alison Arwady said even though this age group hasn’t seen the same hospitalization and fatality rates as older groups, it’s still important to be vaccinated.
