The end of summer 2021 has been earmarked as the time by which most American adults will be vaccinated. But still remaining is the often-overlooked question of vaccinations for children, who make up around a quarter of the U.S. population.

Guest: Apoorva Mandavilli, a science and global health reporter for The New York Times.
