Federal vaccine rules just changed. Colorado’s school requirements didn’t.

By RMV Staff | Rocky Mountain Voice When President Donald Trump signed an executive order establishing a new federal "Gold Standard" childhood vaccine schedule this week, it marked a major shift in federal vaccine recommendations. The administration's new framework reduces the number of diseases for which vaccines are routinely recommended for all children, moves several vaccines into high-risk or shared clinical decision-making categories, and encourages greater parental involvement in vaccination decisions. But for Colorado families, the announcement raised an immediate question: If the federal government has changed its recommendations, why haven't Colorado's school vaccine requirements changed? The answer lies in Senate Bill 26-032, legislation passed earlier this year ...

Who Funds the Experts? Pharma Ties Emerge in Vaccine Schedule Debate

By Ashe Short | Just the News The groups that most Americans treat as neutral medical authorities on what to put in their kids' bloodstreams — the AMA and the AAP — both draw millions in revenue from the companies that manufacture the vaccines they are promoting. Shortly after President Donald Trump signed an executive order reducing the number of vaccines required for young children, the American Medical Association (AMA) issued a press release claiming Trump’s order puts children’s health at risk. “Vaccines are among the most thoroughly studied, effective tools we have to protect children from serious vaccine-preventable diseases,” AMA President Willie Underwood, III, said in the statement. “Decisions about how and when vaccines are used should be driven by ri...

HHS Overhauls Vaccine Recommendations While CDC COVID Messaging Remains

Seven weeks before the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reduced the number of vaccines recommended for all children to 11 from 17, citing a new scientific assessment of immunization practices in "peer, developed countries" commissioned by President Trump, the agency updated its page on "Staying Up to Date with COVID-19 Vaccines." The Trump administration did not remove or revise its predecessor's stunningly broad claim: "Getting a COVID-19 vaccine is a safer, more reliabl...

‘Seismic shift’: New study shows most young parents now reject full CDC vaccine schedule

By Tyler Durden | Zerohedge A new survey published in the JAMA Network by researchers at Emory University and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has found that an increasing number of pregnant women and new mothers are delaying, or even outright refusing, government-recommended vaccines that hospitals and pediatricians push on newborns and young kids. The findings come just ahead of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s much-anticipated announcement on what the federal agency believes to be the root cause of the autism spike in children ahead of the fall school season.  Titled "Vaccination Intentions During Pregnancy and Among Parents of Young Children," researchers found that 33% of parents with...
