President Donald Trump said Friday that his administration is planning to recommend that certain childhood immunizations be broken up into five separate shots, each with a “small amount of the vaccine.” These “20% doses” would each be given six months apart, he said. https://cnn.it/4hd3BYh

This generates much greater expense and inconvenience to families. The increased difficulty is intended is to discourage the vaccinations from ever happening at all. They figured that an outright ban would generate too much bad publicity, so this is the alternate approach. Slimy.

I'm a pediatrician. Do NOT trust any medical recommendations from this administration. They are based on pseudoscience and misinformation. Trust your doctor and the American Academy of Pediatrics!

I recommend that this regime stop planning anything related to childhood immunizations. We don’t need the recommendations of a quack. The experts (family doctors) will continue to provide parents vaccine information and recommend what’s best for their child.

You know, when it comes to things like regulating pollution, protecting public health, inspecting food production, and backing genuine energy independence, there are pretty clear differences between our major parties...

Someone stop this insanity before he kills everyone. This is why we have antibiotic-resistant bacteria - we do not want vaccine-resistant viruses! Go to your pediatricians, demand full-strength doses. Call your representatives now!

I am a virologist who has done preclinical studies on vaccine candidates. Vaccines are tested to determine the most effective dose and for safety. Simply reducing to a 1/5 dose has no scientific basis and will not be effective.

So it would now take 2-1/2 years to get the same degree of vaccination protection you can now get in one visit. In the meantime, your kids aren't protected from the disease, and you get to pay five co-pays instead of one. Even MAGAs can't be this fkking stupid, can they? Oh yeah; they already are.

Starting to wonder if he bought stock in the pharma compan(y/ies) that produce these vaccines... Why pay for one shot when we can pay for FIVE! 🙄
