Officials in Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Department of Health and Human Services promote a vaccine policy model based on Europe's immunization schedules. Key figures like new FDA commissioner Marty Makary and Vinay Prasad criticize the U.S. COVID-19 vaccination recommendations as too broad compared to European standards. They question whether the extensive U.S. childhood vaccination schedule offers benefits that outweigh risks. Martin Kulldorff emphasizes a review of the immunization schedule, while experts highlight that varying vaccination strategies across countries are influenced by demographics and local health threats rather than safety concerns.
"For the best immunization policy, the U.S. should look to Europe," argues officials in Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Department of Health and Human Services, contradicting traditional U.S. vaccine ideals.
Martin Kulldorff, chair of the CDC's Advisory Committee, plans to scrutinize the U.S. immunization schedule, which exceeds vaccines administered in most other developed nations.
