via Parents may have to wait several weeks longer before they can get their youngest children vaccinated with Pfizer and BioNTech’s mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccine.

Pfizer on Friday said it would extend its rolling FDA submission in anticipation of data on a third dose of its COVID-19 vaccine in children younger than 5. Just earlier this month, on Feb. 1, the company filed its emergency use authorization application at the agency's request. That request covered the two-dose regimen, and the company said at the time that data for the planned three-dose series would be expected in the coming months.
