CBS News’ “Face the Nation” host Margaret Brennan, who seemed a bit overexcited about getting her kids vaccinated against the Chinese Wuhan flu, frankly, sat down Sunday with former FDA commissioner and Pfizer board member, Dr. Scott Gottlieb to talk about the Biden FDA’s roll-out of the COVID vaccine for the littlest of children: ages 6 months to 5 years old.

There are going to be pharmacies that are vaccinating children. CVS is going to move it into their pharmacies, but they’re only moving it into the pharmacies with advanced care providers with their MinuteClinics. You’re probably not going to see clinic stood up. Maybe around children’s hospitals, you’ll see some clinics stood up.
But most people are probably going to get vaccinated and their pediatricians’ offices. And it’s going to take a little bit more time to get the vaccine into those local settings, because it’s more difficult to vaccinate a child who is very young. You need people who are specially trained to do that.
