RSMS Hour 4 | Doctors Pushing Back on New US Children Vaccine Schedule

The show also tackled a growing national debate over childhood vaccinations after doctors and medical organizations pushed back against a new federal proposal that would split the MMR vaccine into separate shots and alter the recommended vaccine schedule. Health experts cited in recent reports argue that decades of research continue to support the safety and effectiveness of the current vaccination schedule, while warning that changes could create confusion for families and leave more children vulnerable during a rise in measles cases. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
