Americas 2 sources 2 countries 🔦 Under-reported 39m ago

United States President Donald Trump signed an executive action in the Oval Office on Monday directing a review of the federal childhood vaccination schedule. The directive reduces the number of diseases the government recommends for universal childhood vaccination from 18 to 11 and establishes new categories for other immunizations.

In addition to scaling back the recommended list, the executive action includes a specific proposal to divide the combination measles, mumps, and rubella (triple viral) vaccine into separate doses. The policy shift has drawn criticism and sparked public debate over the changes to federal health recommendations.
