Dr. Fauci says children from 6 months to 5 years old may be able to get vaccinated against COVID-19 by the spring of 2022.
Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine seems like the likely frontrunner for FDA authorization in that age group.
"Can't guarantee it, you've got to do the clinical trial," Fauci said of his predicted timeline.
Kids younger than 5 years old are the only people in the US who still can't get any COVID-19 vaccines.
