YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe CDC on Monday officially updated its vaccine guidelines today to align with recommendations made by the advisory committee that was picked by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The agency is no longer recommending COVID-19 vaccines for all Americans 6 months and older. Instead, officials are encouraging "individual-based decision-making." That includes checking with a medical professional, especially for seniors. The agency is also recommending a stand-alone chicken pox shot for toddlers, rather than combining it with measles, mumps and rubella. Many medical experts warn the committee's recommendations have led to confusion and mistrust over vaccines.
