The City is rolling out Covid vaccines for kids aged 5 to 11. The Pfizer dose contains one-third the amount given to adults and older children. Children are supposed to receive two shots, administered three weeks apart. Find sites and make an appointment here.
Sites in our neighborhoods (check back in as this list is growing):
- CVS Pharmacy on Henry Street in Brooklyn Heights and Myrtle Avenue in Fort Greene
- Citypoint Vaccine Hub in Downtown Brooklyn
- Brooklyn Children’s Museum in Crown Heights: Starting Friday, November 5, BCM will offer the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine to children 5 to 11 years of age. Appointments are required in advance and must be scheduled online.
- New York City public schools serving 5- to 11-year-old students will each host a one-day COVID vaccine clinic. Parent or other grown-up has to be on site to give verbal consent with the child during the process. Staff at the school clinics will help families set up appointments for second doses at other locations. Only students enrolled at the school in the building, or their siblings, can get vaccinated at that site.
