COVID-19 vaccines for kids: what you need to know
Since the first pediatric Pfizer vaccines landed in Canada last weekend, provinces have been moving fast to get them into arms. Children got their first jabs in Ontario on Tuesday; more kids started being vaccinated in Quebec, Manitoba and Saskatchewan on Wednesday; and the rollout continues to expand.\n\nToday we\u2019re joined by Dr. Fatima Kakkar, an infectious diseases pediatrician at the research centre of the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Sainte-Justine and an assistant professor in the Department of Pediatrics at the Universit\xe9 de Montr\xe9al. She breaks down what\u2019s happening with these shots, how they work on kids and what to expect from the rollout.
