Moderna’s Covid vaccine for children has been given full FDA approval, making it the first such shot for kids in the U.S. that will no longer be administered under an emergency use authorization.

The approval of Moderna's Spikevax for kids at higher risk of contracting the disease continues the company's regulatory winning streak, which has also included nods for a next-gen COVID-19 vaccine and an RSV shot.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has granted full approval for Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine, Spikevax, in children aged 6 months through 11 years who are at an increased risk of the disease, the company said on Thursday.
