Dr Ashish Jha, who was recently appointed as the White House's COVID-19 response coordinator, said during a briefing that shots for the youngest eligible Americans could be rolling out in a matter of weeks. His statements come on the back of Pfizer, manufacturer of America's most popular vaccine and the only one to be available to minors in the U.S., announcing Wednesday night that it has completed its application for its three dose vaccine in children six months to four years old. If approved by regulators at both the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it would make America the country with the lowest vaccine eligibility age in the world.
