Is the vaccine safe for my child?

The COVID-19 vaccine has been approved for children ages 5 to 17. The images below are taken from a presentation Dr. Shawn Peyton gave to Walnut Ridge school parents in 2021. Research is still being performed for COVID-19 vaccines for children under 5. As vaccines for ages under 5 become available, we will give our patients updated information on where and how to get young children vaccinated.
