COVID-19
Vaccine Information
Kids First Pediatrics is not providing vaccines at this time, but there is an easy way to get you or your child vaccinated through WakeMed.
WakeMed has opened COVID-19 vaccine appointments to adolescents age 12 to 15, in addition to teens and adults age 16+ after the amendment to the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine emergency use authorization (EUA) for 12- to 15-year-olds was approved by the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CHD).
They are located directly across the street from Kids First Raleigh. For information on getting your child a vaccine at WakeMed, click here.
Mask Policy
In accordance with the new CDC guidance, there will still be certain settings where masks and other safety measures will be required. Masks will still be required in child care, schools and camps.
Everyone, including people who are fully vaccinated, will still be required to wear a mask in certain settings such as public transportation, health care settings like hospitals, doctor’s offices and long-term care settings like nursing homes, and certain congregate settings like correctional facilities and homeless shelters.
People who are not vaccinated should wear a mask and maintain distance in all indoor public settings and in outdoor settings when they can’t maintain six feet of distance.
