My wife and I are two of millions of parents who have been waiting all this time for the opportunity to protect our kids from COVID-19. Now, we finally have that chance. There are few things that feel better than knowing your child is more safe. [2/5]

1️⃣ The vaccine dose and the vaccine trials were specifically tailored for kids. [3/5]
