There is no evidence that any Covid vaccine affects growth. A covid infection can have lasting consequences, even if it does not kill the person. Get the vaccine.

No. There have been no reports of the CoVID vaccine affecting growth. Studies show it is safe and effective against CoVID-19 infections. However, the infection can cause life-threatening complications. So far, only the Pfizer vaccine is available for you age. It has been proven to be very safe.
