European Medicines Agency approves Moderna vaccine for 12 to 17 year olds




The European Medicines Agency has approved the Moderna vaccine for use for those 12 to 17.

In an announcement the EMA said the vaccine has been approved as it is deemed safe and effective.

The decision comes as the EMA say a study showed that the vaccine produced a comparable antibody response to that seen in 18- to 25-year olds.

The vaccine’s approval comes after the EMA approved the Pfizer and BioNtech vaccine for the use in the same age cohort in May
