Trump Presses RFK Jr. to Expand Vaccine-Autism Research: WSJ
Trump has pressed Kennedy to speed up vaccine-autism research and cut childhood shots, while White House aides sought to soften his rhetoric before the midterms.
- President Trump has reportedly urged HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to move aggressively on scaling back federal recommendations for childhood vaccinations.
- The pressure follows prior directives from the administration ordering the CDC to align the U.S. immunization schedule with European nations that recommend fewer routine shots.
- HHS and the CDC previously dropped broad recommendations for six common vaccines—including flu, rotavirus, RSV, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and meningococcal disease—reducing the routine schedule from 17 diseases down to 11.
- Internal friction has emerged within the administration, with some White House advisers urging caution and warning against drastic cuts that could spark political backlash or severe public health risks.
- Major medical associations and federal courts have pushed back, with groups like the American Academy of Pediatrics filing legal challenges that led a federal judge to temporarily block changes to the vaccine advisory process.
