WASHINGTON — President Trump and health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. are moving forward with plans to alter the way vaccinations are administered to children in the U.S.
Their latest initiative, a request for information issued on Friday, reveals more about their intended direction for vaccine policy. This document underscores their commitment to pursuing these changes. While it does not implement any changes itself, it solicits public feedback on a range of ideas, allowing 30 days for comments.
The document invites public input on whether new categories should be added to the current vaccines framework, which presently includes universal recommendations, recommendations for specific risk-based groups, and those based on shared clinical decision-making.
