NEW: We anticipate that the CDC and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration will give the green light to Pfizer’s emergency use authorization application to vaccinate adolescents between the ages of 12 to 15.

The New Jersey Department of Health is currently finalizing guidance for parents, guardians, and practitioners.

We anticipate being able to transition to vaccinating eligible adolescents as soon as Pfizer receives its emergency use authorization.

We’ve spent our time preparing so we can get this latest expansion underway with minimal lead time.
