The anti- Covid vaccination campaign for children under the age of 5 kicks off today in the United States. For the occasion, US President Joe Biden and his wife Jill will visit a vaccination center in Washington: their presence aims to underline the importance of the initiative dedicated to children.

During the day, Biden will speak at the White House precisely "about vaccines for children and the historical progress the country has made in the fight against the virus thanks to safe and effective vaccines available to virtually all Americans".

A few days ago the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of the United States, Rochelle Walensky, gave the green light to the use of Pfizer on children from six months following the authorization of the Food and Drug Administration.
