- For patients between the ages of 6 to 11 years, the indicated dosage is 0.25mL (no diluent).
- For patients 12 years and above, the indicated dosage is 0.5mL (no diluent).
- For your convenience, I have split up the vaccines in eCW accordingly. Fei and I have ensured the appropriate CPTs are assigned to each vaccine/booster:

The Pfizer Peds (5-11 years) Bivalent Booster follows the same preparation steps as the primary monovalent formulation, requiring a diluent prior to administration.
- Dosage amount is still 0.2mL for this population.
- This carton is nearly identical to that of the Pfizer monovalent vaccine. COVID-19 vaccines are stored in the fridge in small, colored baskets with distinct signage. Please continue to get a second pair of eyes on the vaccines you pull before administration!
