The White House on Wednesday urged parents to get their young children vaccinated, as the first child-sized doses of Pfizer shots were administered around the country. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy warned against the spread of misinformation about kids and vaccines.

Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy: “Many parents are already seeing inaccurate claims on social media, text threads and in their inboxes. Now, I believe every parent has a right to the facts, so they can make decisions for their children based on accurate scientific information. Misinformation robs them of this freedom.”
