On March 31, 2021 Pfizer-BioNTech announced that, in a Phase 3 Trial in adolescents 12- to 15-years-old with or without prior coronavirus infection, the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine demonstrated 100% efficacy in preventing severe COVID-19 disease in children.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is currently evaluating the Pfizer vaccine to expand the Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to include those 12 to 15 years of age.
While we are still awaiting to hear of their decision, we anticipate that it may be authorized by the end of this week at the earliest.
If the EUA is authorized and you are interested in vaccinating your child as early as next week, we will be offering Pfizer at the following locations:
Victory Christian Fellowship - 5220 Whitby Ave. Philadelphia, PA 19143 from 10 am - 4 pm on:

If you have a child who is at least 16-years-old and interested in receiving the Pfizer vaccine, this week we will be offering Pfizer at Christian Stronghold Church on May 6 and May 7 from 10 am - 4 pm. We will continue to offer Pfizer for those 16-years-old and over at the locations and dates mentioned above.
Please continue to be well and stay safe.
