In preparation for the approval of the Corona vaccine for children aged 11-5 in a few days at the FDA, the Ministry of Health admits that there are not enough doses in the country that are suitable for a dose suitable for children.
A senior health ministry official explained to Walla!
Because as part of the preparations for the vaccine for children, in Israel it will be necessary to purchase the vials that are suitable for the vaccine dose, and not to use the existing stock of the adult vaccine.
This step, he said, is intended to prevent confusion between the various doses for children and adults.
"The dose of a vaccine for children is three-quarters of an dose of an adult vaccine, but they too will receive the vaccine in two doses at a distance of 21 days," said a senior health ministry official.
He added that they are in talks to purchase the appropriate vials, which currently do not exist in Israel.
