Neither Trump or his equally spray tanned oaf Robert F. Kennedy JR are remotely qualified to pass this order and hang decades of scientific research that have already concluded that there are no links between autism and vaccines. These are the same bozos who thought paracetamol (tylenol) was a danger...
Public health experts have raised concerns that spacing out shots as Trump suggests can lead to an increased risk that children become infected with a vaccine-preventable disease before returning for another visit.
Childhood vaccines—and how and when to give them in combination—go through rigorous studies, and safety tracking continues for years as the shots are used.
According to Dr. Andrew Racine, president of the American Academy of Pediatrics, the announcement spreads uncertainty, fear, and confusion where “there doesn’t need to be any of that.” He disputed Trump’s recommendations and said previous ones should stand.
“Science about vaccines and their efficacy has not changed,” he said. “The distribution of viruses and other pathogens in our environment has not changed. Children in this country have not changed in the last 48 hours.”
Sen. Bill Cassidy, the Republican chair of the Senate health committee, slammed the executive order in a social media post, saying vaccines are safe and do not cause autism.
“I’m a doctor. This executive order is wrong,” the Louisiana senator wrote. “The President does not have the expertise to make these changes.”
