Charlton Hospital First for Pediatric Doses in the US

Following the CDC's approval of Pfizer's vaccine for children ages 5 to 11, a Fall River hospital was the first in the country to receive a shipment of kid-sized doses.

 

According to CBS 12 in Providence, Charlton Memorial Hospital got the delivery from Fedex on November 1 and has since started holding pediatric-only clinics in Dartmouth. Starting Tuesday, November 16, the pediatric clinic will be held every Tuesday from 4 P.M. to 8 P.M. at the Vanity Fair Outlet on Faunce Corner Road. Appointments can be made through the MyChart portal, online scheduling, or by calling (508) 973-1919.
