According to an email from the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases (NCIRD), Pfizer said the FDA recently informed the pharmaceutical company that it may not renew the emergency use authorization for its pediatric Covid vaccine for the 2025 respiratory season.
The email was sent on Friday to state and local vaccination grantees.
The Pfizer vaccine is given to children between the ages of six months and four years.
Pfizer expects its Covid vaccine for children aged five to 11 to be fully licensed this fall, the email said.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is “in discussions” with Moderna about rapidly increasing its Covid vaccine supply for young children, according to the email.
That includes internal planning about volume, timing, and potential supply gaps.
