Information for parents and carers of children aged six months to four years who are at greater risk from COVID-19 infection

Children aged six months to four years with health conditions that may put them at greater risk from COVID-19 will be offered the vaccination from May 2023. They will be offered two vaccines, with a gap of eight weeks between the first and second doses.

The vaccination will help to protect your child against COVID-19. They will be offered the Pfizer (Comirnaty 3 micrograms) vaccine, at a lower dose compared with that given to children aged five and above. The vaccine is safe and recommended for use in children.

Getting vaccinated is a safe and effective way to protect your child against serious illness and being admitted to hospital.
