Australia has been named a potential location for Moderna’s COVID vaccine trial on children aged 6 months to 12 years.
Mick Coatsworth, former deputy chief medical officer, has welcomed the idea on behalf of a nation he considers a world-leader in medical and scientific trials.
Mr Coastworth says, “We certainly need more information on vaccinating children under 12, the more evidence we have, the better it will be for our community.
