The United States on Monday said it was revising its ?childhood immunization schedule to recommend four fewer vaccines, a move ?it said aligns the country with other developed nations while also advancing one ?of Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s long-term goals.
Acting Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Jim O'Neill approved the updated guidelines, the Department of Health and Human Services said on Monday, a month ?after President Donald Trump ?called for reducing the number of vaccines in children's schedules.
Vaccines for rotavirus, influenza, meningococcal disease, and hepatitis A ?have been moved to shared decision-making between parents and healthcare providers, HHS said.
The ?updated recommendations maintain immunizations for 11 diseases, ?including measles, mumps, and varicella, while ?categorizing others as either targeted for high-risk groups or subject to the shared-decision-making category, HHS said.
SUMMARY: going back to common sense and parental control rather than government-forced insanity.
