The move makes Moderna’s vaccine, called Spikevax, the first COVID shot for kids in the U.S. to be fully approved, rather than used under emergency authorization, STAT News reported. The vaccine can now to be given to children ages 6 months through 11 years, but only if they have at least one health issue that increases their COVID risk.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has granted full approval for Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine, Spikevax, in children aged 6 months through 11 years who are at an increased risk of the disease, the company said on Thursday.

Pfizer's COVID vaccine (Comirnaty) is fully approved for patients ages 12 and up, and authorized for kids ages 6 months through 11 years. Novavax's COVID shot (Nuvaxovid) is fully approved for people ages 65 and up, as well as those ages 12 to 64 with at least one health condition that puts them at risk for severe disease.
