"Now we have an abundance of supply. What we want is for people to get these medicines and you can go to COVID.gov to find locations around you where you can get Paxlovid in test and treat sites," said Dr. Murthy. We asked Dr. Murthy about children under 5 years old. That's the only group of Americans who are unable to get vaccinated.
Luz Pena:"You mentioned you have a daughter who is younger than 5 years old. Do you believe that by June there will be a vaccine authorized for children?" Dr. Murthy:"I know the FDA is doing everything they can to make sure they get a vaccine for children under 5 as soon as possible" and added,"They don't have all the data from the companies that have run the trials. As soon as they get that data they are standing by ready to fully evaluate it so they can get those vaccines to kids. If and when that decision is made by the FDA and the CDC we will be ready to deliver those vaccines to children.
