German recommendation to vaccinate children from 5 years old against corona

The German Permanent Immunization Committee (Stico) recommended vaccination against corona for healthy children between the ages of 5 and 11 years.

And the committee announced in a statement today, Tuesday, to update the vaccination recommendations, that children in this category should receive only one dose of the “mRNA” vaccine.

The committee had recommended vaccination in this age group only if children had previous diseases or people at risk of contracting corona, but after a medical questionnaire, the committee has now recommended the possibility of vaccinating every child in this age group.
