Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis confirmed on Thursday that the state would not be ordering COVID-19 vaccines for young children after a Food and Drug Administration panel
unanimously endorsed the Pfizer and Moderna shots for babies and kids under 5.
"There is not going to be any state programs that are going to be trying to get COVID jabs to infants, toddlers, and newborns," the Republican governor said in response to a question asked at a Miami press conference
on Everglades conservation. "That's not something that we think is appropriate, and so that's not where we are going to be utilizing our resources."
