The recommendations are listed below.

A. The ACIP recommends that children 6 months through 5 years of age can get vaccinated with the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, in addition to other currently recommended vaccines, in order to reduce the risk of hospitalization, severe illness (encephalitis, MIS-C) or death following infection.

B. Children in this age group are recommended to complete a 3-dose primary series (a three 3-µg dose series) in which the first two doses are administered at least four weeks apart and the third dose is given at least eight weeks after the second dose.

C. Children in this age group are recommended to complete their COVID-19 vaccine series with the same brand of vaccine.
