A month after the second dose, he had a better antibody response. The company is considering handing over this data to the US Food and Drug Administration so that the vaccine can be approved by Emergency Use as soon as possible.
Abhinav of Indian origin also joined the trial
The vaccine trials continued until October 2020. Its results have now come. 12-year-old Abhinav of Indian origin also participated in the trial of the Pfizer Vaccine.

Risk of harm to children from mutations
Experts have expressed apprehension that the coronavirus will continue to spread further and that it will mutate in a more dangerous form. One or more such mutations can be harmful to children as well.
Jeremy Samuel Faust, a doctor at Brigham and Women's Hospital's Department of Emergency Medicine in the US, and Dr. Angela Rasmussen, a virologist at the Center for Global Health Science at Georgetown University Medical Center, say that despite severe numbers of severe corona cases in children They need to be vaccinated fast.
Children are required to get vaccinated for herd immunity
Many experts, including a well-known American expert on infectious diseases, Dr. Anthony Fauci, say that vaccination of children is necessary to achieve herd immunity. Clinical trials are underway to investigate whether the corona vaccine is safe for children, but we have to be prepared that these trials will not produce any blockbuster results.
