It is worth mentioning that, Health Affairs Presidential Advisor Mohamed Awad Tag El-Din revealed students aged 12 to 15 years will be given the “Pfizer” COVID-19 vaccine because it has been fully accredited internationally.
In a press conference, Tag El-Din added that the Pfizer vaccine has been approved for pregnant and lactating women, noting that it gives immunity for the pregnant woman and the newborn for a period of 6 months.
