Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the
director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, is
offering parents reassurance about taking unvaccinated kids trick-or-treating.
Chris Wallace: "Whether
people are vaccinated or not, as long as you're outside, you are safe?"
Dr. Walensky: "I wouldn't
gather in large settings outside and do screaming like you are seeing in those
football games. If you are unvaccinated, those kids that are unvaccinated, but
if you are spread out doing your doing or trick-or-treating, that should be
very safe for your children."
The Food and Drug Administration is set to
meet Tuesday to discuss approving the Pfizer vaccine for kids as young as five.
If approved, shots could be
going into arms by next week.
