Trump Orders Vaccine Review Amid Autism Claims | California News

President Trump has signed an executive order to review childhood vaccine recommendations, reigniting a controversial debate fueled by his public claims linking vaccines to autism — despite overwhelming scientific consensus and lack of evidence. With midterm elections looming, the move appears politically motivated, as Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime anti-vaccine advocate, continues to lead a high-profile but fruitless investigation into autism’s causes. While the Department of Health and Human Services cites global comparisons and international vaccine schedules, no other country follows Trump’s proposed separation of the MMR shot. Experts stress that rising autism diagnoses stem from genetics, diagnostic expansion, and later parental age — not vaccines — a reality echoed worldwide.
