The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\u2019s Advisory Committee on Thursday voted unanimously to add the COVID-19 vaccine to the childhood immunization schedule.<\/p>\n

CDC Director Rochelle Walensky<\/a> is expected to sign-off on the decision.<\/p>\n

While the move does not require schools to have vaccinated students, health departments in many states use the CDC’s immunization schedule as a guideline for local requirements.<\/p>\n

“Adding the COVID-19 vaccine to the recommended childhood immunization schedule does not constitute a requirement that any child receive the vaccine,” said Dr. Nirav Shah, a committee member.<\/p>\n

“The decision around school entrance for vaccines rests where it did before, which is with the state level, the county level and at the municipal level,” Shah added.<\/p>\n

The CDC had previously recommended every American over 6 months of age should receive the vaccine.<\/p>\n

Committee member Dr. Matthew Daley said, “I will acknowledge I appreciate that there is symbolism in adding COVID-19 to the childhood immunization schedule and that symbolism is that we view this as routine and that we view this as COVID is here to stay. When I think about the routine immunization schedule as a practicing pediatrician, I think about it as an opportunity in my patients to prevent serious disease and death. That’s what I view that as and if something is added to the schedule, it’s because I feel like the benefits continue to strongly outweigh the risks.”<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, the panel voted to add the COVID-19 vaccine to the \u2018Vaccines for Kids\u2019 program<\/a>, a federally funded program that provides vaccines at no cost to children who might not otherwise be vaccinated because of inability to pay.<\/p>\n
