Some parents in the Valley say they're ready to vaccinate their younger children against COVID-19. 

"It is a little scary because these children are so small," Valley parent Angela Garcia said. "We don't know what their reaction is going to be compared to an adult's reaction to the shot, but we have to do it for their safety." 

After speaking with her pediatrician, Garcia says she's confident vaccinating her child is the best choice.
