Back to EpisodesStates Sue Trump Over Vaccine Schedule Cuts
Description
Fifteen states sue Trump administration over vaccine schedule cuts, citing potential health risks and lack of scientific review. The lawsuit challenges the reduction of routine shots for children from seventeen diseases to eleven, and the replacement of the key advisory panel on vaccine safety and timing. The changes mirror the schedule used in Denmark, a small nation with a different health system, and could burden public health resources while raising disease risks. The Health Department dismisses the case as a political stunt, insisting the secretary has full legal authority. Meanwhile, a July lawsuit from major medical groups against stopping COVID vaccine recommendations for healthy children and pregnant women is ongoing, with a ruling expected soon. Legal fights like these highlight deep divides on vaccine policies, as courts weigh science, authority, and child safety in the months ahead.
