Make America... Have Measles Again?

Trump Promised to Make America Healthy. Now He Just Signed an Executive Order Rolling Back Childhood Vaccines.

Donald Trump just signed an executive order calling for fewer routine childhood vaccines and directing the Department of Justice to challenge state vaccine laws.

The order would cut the number of vaccines recommended for all children from 18 to 11, dropping routine vaccines for COVID-19, flu, RSV, hepatitis A and B, and more.

It also calls for splitting the MMR vaccine (measles, mumps, and rubella) into three separate shots and spreading vaccinations across multiple visits, despite no evidence that suggests spacing out vaccines is safer or more effective.

Major medical groups are pushing back, arguing that doing so could increase the risk of infection, confuse parents, cause kids to miss doses, and raise vaccination costs due to additional visits.

The proposed three separate vaccines are also not currently licensed in the United States or approved by the Food and Drug Administration.

Politicians campaigned on promises to make America healthy, but they haven’t lived up to them. Instead, they’re too busy signing executive orders that put our kids’ health at risk.
