EDINBURG, Texsa – Hidalgo County Judge Richard F. Cortez issued the following statement regarding the decision by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention to allow children ages 5 to 11 receive the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine:

Hidalgo County Judge Richard F. Cortez

 “This is good news for Hidalgo County and the rest of the country. I encourage parents to consult with their family physician and to get their children vaccinated if their doctor approves. Hidalgo County has one of the highest percentages in Texas of residents who are vaccinated and I would love nothing more than to repeat that with our school aged children – both for the safety of our community, but, more importantly, to protect our community’s most precious resource: our children.”
