For a COVID-19 vaccine requiring a series of two or more doses, the payment rate is $16.94 for the initial dose(s) in the series and $28.39 for the final dose in the series.

Wait, I thought the vaccine was free. So who's paying those prices? The TAX payers?
The FDA-CDC does not recommend anyone under the age of 18 receive the experimental Covid-19 vaccines from the 3 approved U.S. vendors.. Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson.
An emergency use authorization, or EUA, isn’t the same as a full approval, which can typically take months. Pfizer has only submitted two months of follow-up safety data, but the agency usually requires six months for full approval. The vaccine was authorized for people 16 and older.
