Experts raise alarm over Trump’s public consultation on vaccines policy

The Trump administration's Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has issued a notice in the Federal Register requesting public feedback on the existing categories for vaccine recommendations. These categories currently include routine, risk-based, and shared clinical decision-making. Experts are expressing significant concern, warning that this public consultation could lead to widespread confusion and create substantial challenges in vaccine access. The move is viewed as potentially opening the door to changes that would complicate the established system for vaccine guidance.
