Parental consent is must for vaccination for the children and this can be done online or in person. The vaccine will be given only through mass vaccination centres.
Two doses of Pfizer vaccine will be administered in a lower dose to children. The time gap between two doses is three weeks.
The vaccine registration for children with underling conditions had been opened last week and the inculcation had been started at hospitals.
