The country's leading immunisation advisory group says it is still considering data on whether to give the final approval to COVID-19 vaccines for young children.
Following its latest meeting, the Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation said a decision is yet to be made on whether to sign off on Moderna's vaccine for children as young as six months.
The medical regulator granted provisional approval for the vaccine earlier this week, but the advisory group will still need to give the green light for the rollout to proceed.
