The company said it believes three doses 'may provide a higher level of protection in this age group.'

The move means that vaccines for this age group will not be available in the coming weeks, a setback for parents eager to vaccinate their young children.

The FDA was expected to publish an analysis of the Pfizer data Friday, ahead of an advisory committee meeting next week. The FDA said Friday the meeting has been postponed. However, Dr. Peter Marks, director of the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, said Friday that after regulators reviewed the company’s two-dose data, they decided they needed to see the three-dose data before considering authorization.
