A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advisory committee on Saturday unanimously voted to recommend Moderna and Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines for children under five, a major milestone for parents waiting to get shots for their young children.  

Once CDC Director Rochelle Walensky signs off, which is expected shortly, vaccinations can begin this coming week for children six months and older. 

The rollout of vaccines from both Pfizer and Moderna for children under five comes months after some anxious parents were eagerly awaiting the shots, and frustrated by delays.
