description Children with certain comorbidities and immunocompromising conditions are highly vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 is an important strategy to reduce death, critical illness and overall disease burden. With the evolving and increasing transmission of SARS-CoV-2, universal vaccination is essential to achieve this goal. Children with special medical conditions are considered as the priorities for SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. However, vaccine hesitancy towards the implementation of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination currently remains an urgent challenge. In order to promote the sustainable vaccination for those children in Shanghai as well as China, Shanghai municipal center for disease control and prevention, together with the national children’s medical center, children’s hospital of Fudan university and the expert group on immunization planning of the Shanghai preventive medicine association, organized a consensus expert working group to formulate the evidence-based recommendations and implementation suggestions for children with common chronic diseases, allergy history, diseases involving adverse events related to vaccination, and immunocompromising conditions, based on the published evidence of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination for populations and children with special medical conditions.
