Vaccine Order Sparks Confusion | Cincinnati News

A new executive order is stirring up confusion about childhood vaccines — but don’t panic: school requirements and your pediatrician’s advice stay unchanged. The order suggests spacing out shots and splitting the MMR vaccine, but experts say it’s medically unnecessary and could actually hurt kids by delaying protection. The American Academy of Pediatrics calls it “dangerous” with no new science to back it up. Plus, separating MMR shots isn’t even possible right now since those vaccines aren’t made separately in the U.S. Local health officials urge parents to stick to regular schedules and talk to their child’s doctor — because they know your kid’s health best.
