In response to the FDA authorizing a coronavirus vaccine for 12-15 year olds, Protect Our Care’s Coronavirus War Room Spokesperson Michael Feldman issued the following statement:
“Today’s decision by the FDA to grant authorization for a COVID-19 vaccine for 12-15 year olds is a monumental step forward in the fight against the pandemic and a clear sign that President Biden is delivering on his promise to vaccinate all Americans as quickly and efficiently as possible.
“American families worried about the health and safety of their children can breathe easier knowing that under President Biden’s leadership, their children will soon be eligible to receive the vaccine.
“In just over three months in office, President Biden quickly turned the disastrous vaccine distribution system handed to him by the previous administration into one that has shattered expectations and delivered shots into arms at a record pace.
“There’s no question that this administration is doing everything it can to get America back on track as quickly and safely as possible, and with this announcement it’s clear that we are closer than ever to getting there.”
