Dear Friend,
Children aged 5 and up are now eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. The FDA, CDC and California's own COVID-19 Scientific Safety Review Workgroup found the vaccine safe and effective for this age group.
Kids are affected by COVID-19, so vaccination of children is a critical tool to keeping schools open, protecting immunocompromised kids and their families, and helping California continue on its path to normalcy.
Visit myturn.ca.gov, check with your child's health provider, or be on the lookout for community clinics to find a vaccine for kids in your family.
If we work together, we can protect each other.
P.S. I hope you can join me at my virtual town hall at 10:00 a.m. this Saturday, November 13, 2021. RSVP and ask questions here.
