Pfizer-BioNTech is working on COVID-19 vaccines for children as young as 6 months old

COVID-19 vaccine makers BioNTech and Pfizer have submitted initial trial data for a vaccine to cover 5 to 11 year olds. They plan to make a formal request to US regulators for emergency use.

The US Food and Drug Administration has said it would complete its data review as quickly as possible, with sources saying an authorization of the vaccine for 5 to 11 year olds could come by the end of October, Reuters reported.

Data from the companies' trial showed the two-shot vaccine generated an immune response in 5 to 11 year old children that matched that of the 16 to 25 year old group, with the safety profile also comparable, Pfizer said.

The drugmakers are now testing the vaccine in children aged 2 to 5 and those aged 6 months to 2 years old, with data expected in the fourth quarter.

Here are the latest major developments on coronavirus around the world:

Europe

Germany reported 11,780 cases and 67 deaths on Wednesday. The total number of cases now stands at 4,215,351 and deaths at 93,571.

Spain will allow fans to fill open-air stadiums up to 100% capacity and indoor facilities up to 80% starting October 1, the Health Ministry said. The move comes as the country has been gradually lifting restrictions, despite a high number of infections.

Fans will still be subject to rules, such as maintaining a social distance of 1.5 meters (4.92 ft) between each other and wearing face masks. Spectators will be allowed to drink water, but not to eat or smoke.

Italy has given the go-ahead for travel to six non-European tourist spots. Italians will be able to travel quarantine-free to the Maldives, Seychelles, Mauritius, Egypt (but only Sharm El Sheikh and Marsa Alam), Dominican Republic and Aruba.

Travelers must have a 'Green Pass' showing COVID immunity - either due to vaccination or previous infection - and must also present a negative swab at least 48 hours before departure, the health ministry said.

The government of Poland said Wednesday that it would send 100,000 doses of AstraZeneca vaccine to Egypt. The Polish Foreign Ministry said the shipment is a "expression of solidarity" towards an "important partner" in North Africa. 

Police in Slovenia on Wednesday cracked down on thousands of protesters who oppose coronavirus restrictions. The demonstrators took to the streets against coronavirus vaccine passes, with police firing tear gas and water cannons in response. 

Slovenia also stopped using the Johnson & Johnson coronavirus vaccine after the death of a 20-year-old woman. She had experienced a serious health condition after receiving the J&J jab.  

The demonstrators at Wednesday's protests held a moment of silence for the young woman.
