President Trump has signed a sweeping Executive Order restructuring Federal childhood vaccine recommendations and directing agencies to maximize parental choice, reassess vaccine safety, and bring the U.S. schedule more closely in line with practices used by peer developed nations.
The new Executive Order establishes three categories of childhood immunization recommendations:
Hep B, Flu, COVID, and Rotavirus Removed From Universal Recommendations
Under the new framework, influenza, COVID-19, rotavirus, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and meningococcal disease are placed under shared clinical decision-making rather than being universally recommended for every child.
Hepatitis A and B are also recommended for certain high-risk populations, alongside meningococcal vaccination, dengue vaccination, and RSV monoclonal antibodies.
It’s quite unfortunate that lethal COVID-19 mRNA gene-transfer injections remain available to any human being.
Vaccines Still Universally Recommended
The new “Gold Standard Childhood Vaccine Recommendations” retain universal recommendations covering:
- Measles
- Mumps
- Rubella
- Diphtheria
- Tetanus
- Pertussis
- Polio
- Haemophilus influenzae type B
- Pneumococcal disease
- Human papillomavirus
- Varicella
While many of the vaccines that remain universally recommended are still hazardous to human health, this Executive Order represents a major improvement over the previous childhood vaccine framework.
