WHO: Interim statement on COVID-19 vaccination for children (3)

14 August, 2022

Dear all

This is an important statement. Because the cases of children are the core of the spread of COVID-19 in Japan.

And severe child cases, including encephalopathy or encephalitis, have been reported.

I want to share this through mailing lists for paediatricians.

Kind regards,

Hajime
