The ONLY reason my toddler is @moderna_tx vaxxed is bc of @ImmunizeUnder5s - NOT bc of @POTUS @VP @TheDemocrats roll out. I drove 3hrs out of state today to get her vaxxed. SHAME ON YOU. I'll remember this when I vote. #ImmunizeUnder5s @MamaWeasleyy

I only got Twitter to let @US_FDA @DrCaliff_FDA @DrWoodcockFDA @FDACBER @POTUS @VP @WhipClyburn @COVIDOversight @TheDemocrats @CDCDirector know they FAILED to #ImmunizeUnder5s quickly. I finally got my toddler vaccinated by driving 3hrs out of state today. @ImmunizeUnder5s

The @US_FDA has finally authorized the use of #Covid vaccines for children under five. Thank you to all the families who participated in the trials to help make this possible. We must ensure that these vaccines are available and accessible to ALL children.
Today, we authorized emergency use of the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine and the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine for the prevention of COVID-19 to include use in children down to 6 months of age. fda.gov/news-events/press-an…

Dr. Califf, could you please go ahead and sign off on those pediatric EUAs? Trial families are waiting to be unblinded after all the sacrifices we've made for the greater good. Thanks.

Given all this talk about low vaccine uptake, the government at every level sure doesn't seem to be working hard to make the vaccine easily accessible to working parents.

A week to the @US_FDA EUA meeting to #immunizeunder5s @pfizer @moderna_tx who will hold them accountable and what’s the roll out plan. If you think you’re having a bad pandemic day, just ask a parent of a child under 5. @ImmunizeUnder5s

Utterly disgraceful. So much for #ProtectionOverPolitics. We won't forget this @CDCDirector @DrCaliff_FDA. @WhipClyburn and @COVIDOversight: please take note. Meanwhile, our #under5s are still unprotected. #ImmunizeUnder5s
Novavax approved with no Omicron data. Kids under 5 with no safety issues at all noted and no options for the past 2.5 years. Glad we see who has priority- antivaxxers @US_FDA @FDASpox @DrCaliff_FDA @ImmunizeUnder5s

Love to but my kid is still ineligible because you won't approve a vaccine.

Know what’s bananas? We waited nearly SIX MONTHS for <5 vax approval beyond initially expected and not a single policymaker at any level seems to have bothered to plan for a successful vax rollout. Age limits for pharmacy vax, uneven uptake of vac access at pedi offices…

They approved Novavax yesterday There are 4 vaccines for adults and none for any kid under five. The answer.....to increase vaccine uptake...but this still leaves the under fives with nothing.

Seems like states need help planning to get shots to kids under 5. Putting it all in the hands of peds is not the solution. Some aren’t even ordering it. We need EQUITABLE access just like everyone else. @HHSGov @SecBecerra @XavierBecerra @scdhec @henrymcmaster @ImmunizeUnder5s
