Dr Anthony Fauci has said that vaccinated parents still need to be careful about allowing their unvaccinated children to play with others.

Speaking to CBS's Face The Nation on Sunday, Dr Fauci said that "children can clearly wind up getting infected", if they play with other kids despite their parents being vaccinated.

He added that "when the children go out into the community, you want them to continue to wear masks when they're interacting with groups from multiple households".

Dr Fauci has said that he expects that kids in elementary school probably won't be vaccinated until early next year, with high schoolers hopefully starting to get the jab this autumn.
