Helpful resources: Here is a link to the American Association of Pediatric's website Healthychildren.org treating that specific subject. They are the authority on pediatric care that I trust as a pediatrician. Hope you find it helpful. https://www.healthychildren.org/English/health-issues/conditions/chest-lungs/Pages/2019-Novel-Coronavirus.aspx

COVID-19 vaccine is safe & found to be effective for children 6 months & older & adults.In the US,it is emergency use authorized for 6 months and up & fully authorized for 16 years of age & up.I encourage everyone who is eligible to be vaccinated and boosted! Additionally, stay home when ill, wear a well-fitting mask when indoors around others, especially in public when community levels are high.
