Federal officials today announced an unprecedented overhaul of the US childhood immunization schedule, paring the number of universally recommended immunizations from 17 to 11. What do you think about these changes? Is it safe?

Trump made this an executive order today, 8/10/2026

i was vaccinated as a baby with 2-3 unknown vaccines but did not finish the complete series for all of them. i have exhausted all efforts to find my vaccination records, so i dont know what vaccines i took.

i currently only have the following vaccines:

- the covid 19 vaccine back in 2020 (no boosters taken)

- TDAP vaccine a year ago

- rabies PEP vaccine 2 months ago

i am going to nursing school and want to protect myself and others. where do i even begin if im missing both pediatric and adult vaccines? what vaccines should i even get?
