White House chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci said on Jan. 19 that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) could approve Pfizer and BioNTech’s COVID-19 vaccine for children under 5 years old within the next month.

“My hope is that it’s going to be within the next month or so and not much later than that, but I can’t guarantee that because I can’t outguess the FDA,” Fauci said during a virtual town hall meeting with Blue Star Families, a nonprofit group that supports military families.
