WASHINGTON. The corona vaccine from Biontech / Pfizer received emergency approval in the USA yesterday for use in children between the ages of five and eleven. The US Medicines Agency granted this. The CDC health authority only has to deal with this formally. This means that the vaccination campaign for the approximately 28 million affected children – as planned by the White House – can start in November.
Vote postponed
On the other hand, the vote on an infrastructure law by the US House of Representatives was politically postponed Thursday (local time). House spokeswoman Nancy Pelosi said some Democrats would have insisted not to vote if they could not also vote on a $ 1.75 trillion social and climate package.
