The move makes Moderna’s vaccine, called Spikevax, the first COVID shot for kids in the U.S. to be fully approved, rather than used under emergency authorization, STAT News reported. The vaccine can now be given to children ages 6 months through 11 years, but only if they have at least one health issue that increases their COVID risk.

Moderna’s Covid vaccine for children has been given full FDA approval, making it the first such shot for kids in the U.S. that will no longer be administered under an emergency use authorization.

The approval of Moderna's Spikevax for kids at higher risk of contracting the disease continues the company's regulatory winning streak, which has also included nods for a next-gen COVID-19 vaccine and an RSV shot.
