Press release from the City of Oakdale:

May 20, 2021

The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine is now approved for adolescents 12 to 15 years old. At this time, the Pfizer vaccine is the only COVID-19 vaccine that has been authorized for use by people ages 12 to 18 years old. The Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna, and Johnson and Johnson vaccines are all authorized for use by people 18 years and older.

Parent or guardian consent is required for COVID-19 vaccination for people younger than 18. We encourage a parent or guardian to go to the vaccine appointment with their 12 to 17 year old to learn about the COVID-19 vaccine and provide consent for the child to receive the vaccine.
