Thailand’s Food and Drug Administration on Tuesday gave the green light to allow children aged six months to five years to receive Pfizer’s Comirnaty Vaccine to build body immunity against Covid-19.

The first lot of 300,000 doses of Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine for children arrived in Thailand.

Three million doses of the COVID-19 vaccine that Pfizer produced for children will arrive in the country on Jan 26, said Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul.

The cabinet acknowledged an order for 30 million doses of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine and the delivery was expected within the first three quarters of next year.

Vaccinations against COVID-19 with the Pfizer vaccine donated by the United States began in 13 provinces of severe outbreaks.

The Public Health Ministry was distributing 645,000 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine made by Pfizer-BioNTech to hospitals for the protection of vulnerable groups of people.

The COVID-19 vaccine made by Pfizer would be administered for doctors, nurses, medical students, rescue workers and undertakers who were in close contact with COVID-19 cases, according to the Public Health Ministry.
