Trump’s Vaccine Order Sparks Health Debate | Amarillo News

President Trump is poised to sign an executive order that could alter childhood vaccination schedules by spacing out shots like the MMR into separate visits — a move rooted in his long-held belief, despite overwhelming scientific consensus that vaccines are safe and effective. The order also calls for expanded vaccine research, though states retain final authority over school immunization rules. Public health officials warn this delay could leave kids unprotected during outbreaks, as the U.S. battles a rising measles crisis threatening its disease-free status. Trump’s continued focus on debunked claims linking vaccines to autism — which decades of research have refuted — has drawn criticism, even as Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. promises updates on autism studies. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
