According to WHO experts, adolescents and children are least likely to tolerate severe covid, therefore, general vaccination is not needed.

The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends not vaccinating all adolescents and children against coronavirus. There is no point in general vaccination - minors are less likely to carry the infection in a severe form than others, 360tv.ru writes with reference to RIA Novosti.
