President Donald Trump signed an executive order Monday evening that reduces the federal recommended childhood vaccination schedule to just 11 vaccines, targeting only the most serious diseases, according to a report by Israel's N12 news. The order recognizes the 11 vaccines as the official standard.
The move follows previous reports tracked by The Zioneer: last week, Trump reportedly stated that the United States no longer recommends hepatitis, COVID-19, and influenza vaccines for all children. That statement was not accompanied by an executive order, making tonight's signing a formal policy step.
Details remain limited. The N12 report did not specify which specific vaccines are included in the reduced set, nor did it provide the official title of the executive order. The full scope of the change and its immediate effect on federal health agencies such as the CDC is not yet clear.
