Trump signs executive order to split measles, mumps and rubella vaccine into separate shots in sweeping change – live

politics

The Guardian reports that Trump signed an executive order affecting the childhood vaccine schedule. The administration would no longer recommend hepatitis B, COVID-19, and influenza vaccines for children, and the order directs that the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine be split into three separate shots rather than administered together. This represents an attempt to override the CDC's established vaccine recommendations.
