The primary goal of COVID-19 vaccination in children and adolescents is the prevention of severe courses of the disease.

It is currently unclear whether catch-up vaccination in already infected or vaccinated children or whether forthcoming healthy children will need vaccination, aiming for hybrid immunity.
