That’s what I suspected so whatever the usual processes are presumably address the consent issues papa raised and safety issues joglynne alluded to. There’s no reason for this one to go any differently.

Pierre’s point might make decisions around emergency use for low risk age groups different at a later date but it’s no reason to not develop one. Just as usefulness doesn’t drop off a cliff at 65 I’m sure it doesn’t emerge as 16.
