WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. health regulators’ decision on whether to approve Pfizer (NYSE:) and BioNTech’s COVID-19 vaccine for children ages 5 to 11 could spill over into November if needed, the nation’s top u.s. infectious disease official said on Wednesday.

When Dr. Anthony Fauci was asked about Wall Street Journal reports that an expanded approval might not be forthcoming next month, he said that the Food and Drug Administration is working quickly and that “if that goes into November that’s because that’s what it’s needed.”
