Clinics set Thursday, Friday, Monday
The FDA, CDC & ACIP (Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices) have approved the Pfizer vaccine for children 12 years and older. The Missouri Department of Health and Humana Services has now amended its standing orders to include this age group.
Effective today (Thursday, May 13), the Platte County Health Department is now accepting anyone 12 and up.
Children age 12-17 receiving a COVID-19 vaccination must be accompanied by an adult. A parent/guardian is preferable, however, the parent/guardian may designate a non-parent adult to be present at the time of vaccination if the parent/guardian is unavailable. Parents will need to fill out a delegation of authority form. The form can be found on our website under Announcements and/or the COVID banner at the top of the page.
Platte County Health Department will hold Pfizer clinics at our Riverside location. 4400 NW 41st Street, Riverside, MO. 64152 on:
Thursday, May 13: 9:00 am-12:00 pm.
