Health officials in New Brunswick have expanded COVID-19 vaccination rollout to include children aged 12 and older.
At a media briefing Wednesday, Education Minister Dominic Cardy made the announcement with Chief Medical Health Officer Dr. Jennifer Russell.
Cardy says education officials have worked hard to support Public Health and their plans to vaccinate children.
The education department won’t vaccinate children in schools because the Pfizer vaccine, the only one approved for persons aged 12 and up, needs to be stored at very cold temperatures, Cardy said.
