\n As parents shop for backpacks, No. 2 pencils and sneakers in preparation for the new school year, making sure children are up to date on their vaccinations is on many families\u2019 back-to-class checklists.\n <\/p>

\n This year, many health experts are worried that decisions about vaccination \u2014 how many shots to get and when to get them \u2013 may be unnecessarily complicated because of an executive order signed by President Donald Trump on Monday that seeks to pare down the number of routine immunizations given to American kids and, in some cases, reformulate them and space them out.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cThe president wants to maximize parental choice choices over vaccinations for their children,\u201d a White House official said Monday.\n <\/p>\n

\n Doctors said the a la carte approach to vaccination spelled out in Trump\u2019s executive order would harm families, rather than help.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cThe only thing that I can see is going to happen as a result of the announcement from today is an injection of greater amounts of uncertainty and fear and confusion, where there doesn\u2019t need to be any of that,\u201d Dr. Andrew Racine, president of the American Academy of Pediatrics, said Monday.\n <\/p>\n

\n Types of vaccines, insurance coverage won\u2019t change soon\n<\/h2>\n

\n The first thing to know is that there aren\u2019t likely to be any changes to the types of shots available to families \u2013 or to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\u2019s recommended vaccine schedule \u2013 for months or years, if they happen at all.\n <\/p>\n

\n Insurance coverage also is not likely to be affected since childhood vaccines remain on the CDC\u2019s schedule as recommended, even if they have been moved to a category called \u201cshared clinical decision-making,\u201d which means patients need sign-off from their healthcare provider before they get them.\n <\/p>\n

\n Two major insurers, Blue Cross Blue Shield and CVS, said Monday that they were reviewing the president\u2019s order but planned to continue to cover CDC-recommended pediatric vaccines without co-pays, at least for the time being.\n <\/p>\n

\n The White House said that free vaccines provided through the Vaccines for Children program would also not be affected by the new executive order because, by law, that program relies on guidance from the CDC\u2019s vaccine advisory committee.\n <\/p>\n

\nTrump signs executive order aimed at reducing number of recommended childhood vaccines<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

6 min read<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n Trump\u2019s vaccine order likely to face challenges\n<\/h2>\n

\n Next, the order is likely to be challenged. Executive orders aren\u2019t the legal mechanism though which vaccine recommendations are made in the US, said Dr. Dorit Reiss, a professor at the University of California at San Francisco who specializes in vaccine law. Congress has laid out a different process, she said.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cSeveral Congressional laws put the power to make these recommendations on the[CDC\u2019s]Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, with approval or rejection by CDC director. The President can direct CDC to convene ACIP and consider these changes, but an Executive Order is not a substitute to that process,\u201d Reiss said in an email.\n <\/p>\n

\n This isn\u2019t the Trump administration\u2019s first attempt to overhaul US vaccine policy. US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. tried to have the CDC change the childhood vaccine schedule in January, and his group of handpicked advisers had been meeting to debate the safety of vaccine ingredients before a judge\u2019s order stopped those changes in March. That litigation is still ongoing.\n <\/p>\n

\n The White House said the order complies fully with the existing court orders and injunctions.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cWhat this particular executive order does is, on behalf of the president, recognizes the gold standard science for the United States government. This is separate from any other committee processes,\u201d a White House official said.\n <\/p>\n

\n Evidence for vaccines hasn\u2019t changed\n<\/h2>\n

\n Something else to be aware of is that the changes called for in the executive order aren\u2019t being driven by new science or evidence, said Dr. Paul Offit, director of the Vaccine Education Center at the Children\u2019s Hospital of Philadelphia.\n <\/p>\n

\n The executive order draws its recommendations from a that compared the childhood vaccine schedule in the US with those of other developed countries.\n <\/p>\n

\n The review was criticized at the time for comparing the United States to Denmark, a much smaller county that provides universal health care to its citizens.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cWhat\u2019s good for the children in Denmark is probably good for the children in Denmark, and what\u2019s good for the children in Japan is probably good for the children in Japan,\u201d Racine said.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cBut the recommendations for immunization here in this country and the schedule that we\u2019ve developed has been developed over generations with thousands and thousands of studies, and it\u2019s really based on what the conditions that the children in the United States are facing, which is what it should be,\u201d he added.\n <\/p>\n

\n The executive order, titled \u201cDelivering Gold-Standard Vaccine Recommendations for Americans,\u201d bears the fingerprints of Kennedy, who has weakened vaccine recommendations and has questioned both the safety of routine childhood immunizations and the schedule that parents and doctors rely on to deliver them.\n <\/p>\n

\n Challenges of splitting up vaccines\n<\/h2>\n

\n The new order calls for splitting up combination vaccines, like the one that protects against measles, mumps and rubella, which would be given as three shots instead of one, at three separate office visits.\n <\/p>\n

\n This currently isn\u2019t possible even if parents wanted to do it, said Dr. Katherine Matthias, a pediatrician who practices near Greenville, South Carolina.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cThat doesn\u2019t exist in the United States, so I don\u2019t know where he\u2019s getting that from,\u201d Matthias said. \u201cAs a pediatric office, you cannot order a measles shot, a mumps shot and rubella shot. It comes as an MMR, or it comes as an MMR-varicella, which we give combined at age 4.\u201d The varicella vaccine protects against chickenpox.\n <\/p>\n

\n On Monday, White House officials acknowledged that single vaccines for measles, mumps and rubella are not currently available in the US.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cThis specific recommendation will be followed up by work at HHS and to work with the private sector and others on making that option commercially available,\u201d an official said.\n <\/p>

\nUS measles cases reach 35-year high, for second record-breaking year in a row<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

9 min read<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n Even if the shots were available separately, giving them that way doesn\u2019t make much practical sense, Matthias said.\n <\/p>\n

\n At the 4-year-old well child visit, doctors typically give kids two shots: MMRV, which protects against measles, mumps, rubella and chickenpox; and a shot that protects against diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough and polio. If those came separately, parents would be giving kids five to nine shots instead of two, and they\u2019d be coming back to the doctor every two weeks to get another dose.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cA lot of my patients have transportation issues,\u201d Matthias said. \u201cThey\u2019re not going to come in every couple weeks to get the shots all separated out.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n That also means kids on an extended vaccination schedule are less safe because they\u2019re more likely not to finish the full series of shots they need.\n <\/p>\n

\n What\u2019s more, Matthias said, kids are exposed to hundreds of things every day that stimulate their immune systems. Combining vaccines is still only giving them only a fraction the number of things they are already being exposed to.\n <\/p>\n

\n Eyes on vaccine timing, ingredients\n<\/h2>\n

\n The executive order would pare down the number of vaccines that are recommended for all children from 18 to 11; the rest would be available based on a recommendation from a healthcare provider.\n <\/p>\n

\n It also calls for more study of the timing of the vaccine schedule as well as scrutiny of vaccine ingredients such as aluminum, or alum, which is used in small amounts in some shots as a booster, or adjuvant, to help them work better.\n <\/p>\n

\n The amount of aluminum in vaccines is much smaller than what kids already take in through eating, drinking and breathing, said Racine, of the American Academy of Pediatrics.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cRight now, there are no equivalently effective alternative adjuvants that could be put into a vaccine tomorrow that would that would do what aluminum does,\u201d Racine said. \u201cThere\u2019s no evidence at all that aluminum has any safety concerns for children when it\u2019s given in the context of an adjuvant in a vaccine.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n What\u2019s more, changing vaccine ingredients would require new studies, which would be costly and take years. It\u2019s unlikely that pharmaceutical manufacturers would be willing to do that, since the vaccines we have now are already safe and effective.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cTo do a trial for its new vaccine, it would cost tens and possibly hundreds of millions of dollars to do that kind of work. To what end?\u201d Offit said. \u201cIt\u2019s not going to make it safer. All it\u2019s going to do is make it less available and less affordable.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Targeting school vaccination requirements\n<\/h2>\n

\n The executive order also threatens states and counties with legal action if they don\u2019t allow religious or personal-belief exemptions to vaccination, and it suggests that the federal government could withhold funding to states that don\u2019t adopt its recommendations.\n <\/p>\n

\n Vaccines are required for public school attendance in all 50 states, though that standard has been weakened in many states in recent years by a slate of new laws allowing personal-belief exemptions, which allow parents to opt out of routine vaccines for their kids without a documented medical reason.\n <\/p>\n

\nWest Virginia has the best kindergarten vaccination rates in the nation. A legal fight backed by RFK Jr. could threaten that<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

11 min read<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n Four states don\u2019t allow families to opt out of vaccines required for school through religious or personal-belief exemptions: California, Connecticut, Maine and New York. In West Virginia, legal challenges threaten the state\u2019s longstanding policy of not allowing religious exemptions to vaccination.\n <\/p>\n

\n States without personal-belief exemptions consistently have higher vaccination rates \u2013 and are less likely to see outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases \u2013 than states that do allow them.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u2018Already seeing the fallout\u2019\n<\/h2>\n

\n Doctors say that the only predictable result of Trump\u2019s executive order is confusion and fear, which is likely to cause falling vaccination rates in the United States to drop even further.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cWe\u2019ve already seeing the fallout of it,\u201d said Matthias, who is also co-founder of the nonprofit Protect Their Future, a group of parents who advocate for access to pediatric vaccines.\n <\/p>\n

\n Matthias said her practice is near Spartanburg, South Carolina, which dealt with a large measles outbreak this year. She saw many parents bring in babies to be vaccinated on an accelerated schedule because they were worried they\u2019d get sick before they could get their first MMR dose.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cThere\u2019s going to be more people hesitant to get their vaccines on time, and there\u2019s going to be more outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases,\u201d Matthias said. In the past year, her practice has seen more cases of whooping cough, or pertussis, and chickenpox than she can remember.\n <\/p>\n

\n Experts urge parents to listen to pediatricians, who have the best interests of their kids at heart.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cI see this as a ploy to further erode public confidence in vaccines and ensure vaccination rates continue to decline and bring the diseases back, which has already started to happen,\u201d said Dr. Peter Hotez, a senior fellow in disease and humanity at the Baker Institute at Rice University.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cThese vaccines are incredibly safe, very effective, and have historically led to the elimination of the diseases they\u2019re designed to prevent,\u201d Hotez said.\n <\/p>
