Anvisa will decide this Thursday on the application of CoronaVac in children. Follow along.
The São Paulo state government wants to begin childhood vaccinations with the vaccine immediately following the Agency's decision.
247 - This Thursday (20), the National Health Surveillance Agency (Anvisa) is expected to analyze the request for emergency use of the CoronaVac vaccine against Covid-19 in children and adolescents aged 3 to 17 years.
This is the second request made by the Butantan Institute, whose first request was denied due to lack of documentation.
In a press conference this Wednesday (19), Governor João Doria (PSDB) said that Butantan has 15 million doses of CoronaVac ready for use. Of these, 12 million are reserved for children aged 3 to 11. “Having approval from Anvisa, São Paulo will immediately begin vaccinating children in this age group,” said Doria.
