In mid-June, the FDA granted emergency use authorization to Pfizer and Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine for children ages 6 months to 5 years old. In New York City, the vaccines will become available as early as the start of next week.

But while some parents have been counting the days, others have questions: What if my child already had COVID-19? How effective is the vaccine for kids versus adults? And what about additional doses?

In this episode Epicenter NYC’s Mitra Kalita talks to Dr. Mark Horowitz, a family doctor in Lower Manhattan, about what parents should consider when making the decision to vaccinate their children.
