Watch Live: CDC advisory committee votes on Pfizer's COVID vaccine for kids as young as 12

A CDC advisory committee is scheduled to vote Wednesday on the use of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine for kids between the ages of 12 and 15. The vote comes two days after the Food and Drug Administration expanded emergency use authorization of the vaccine to children in this age range.

The vaccine had previously been authorized for ages 16 and up. After Monday's FDA decision, a handful of cities started offering shots to kids as young as 12, but most communities were waiting for the CDC advisory committee to sign off on the move, The Associated Press reported.
