Covid-19: Germany to vaccinate children over 12 from June 7
BERLIN, May 28 (NNN-AGENCIES) — Germany will start offering coronavirus jabs to children over the age of 12 from June 7, Chancellor Angela Merkel said.
But she stressed that vaccination would not be compulsory and would have no bearing on whether children can attend school or go on holiday.
The European Medicines Agency is expected to approve the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid jab for 12- to 15-year-olds on Friday. It is already authorised in the EU for those over 16.
