Dr. Scott Gottlieb, former Food and Drug Administration (FDA) commissioner, said on Sunday that he believes a potential COVID-19 vaccine mandate for young children is likely to be “a long way off.”
Gottlieb, now a board member for U.S.-based pharmaceutical company Pfizer, said during an appearance on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that such a mandate for children between the ages of 5 and 11 is likely to be years away.
