Governor McKee says the next big effort in the state is to vaccinate children between the ages of 5 and 11.
The Governor says once the FDA approves the vaccine for that age group they will be ready.
Pediatricians will be the main way for that group to be vaccinated since there is already a relationship.
The Governor says it is likely to take weeks for 80 thousand doses of the vaccine to get to the state.
The FDA will meet on the issue of child vaccinations October 26th and make a decision shortly thereafter.
