CANADA - It looks like Health Canada is about to approve the Pfizer-BioNtech vaccine for kids between ages of 5 to 11.
A report in the Toronto Star says the official announcement will be taking place tomorrow.
It also says three million doses of the children's vaccine will be delivered over the next few days, enough for every single child in that age group to receive one dose. The pediatric doses of the vaccine are about one-third of the size of the vaccine given to people over the age of 12.
We'll provide more details on this announcement as they become available.
