On Monday, August 10, President Donald Trump signed an executive order aimed at reducing the number of childhood vaccinations. The directive mandates a shift in the national inoculation schedule, limiting the recommended regimen to 11 immunizations. This policy represents a reduction of six vaccines from the current recommendations previously in place.
In addition to the overall reduction in the number of vaccines, the executive order includes a provision to break up the combined MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) shot into separate components. The order establishes a new federal standard for childhood immunization protocols.
