I look forward to the day when vaccine science is done the way other science is done, by the scientific method -- and not by consensus. Consensus seems more of an excuse or a fig leaf than a rationale for policy. HHS has made some progress here, and deserves credit. Perhaps politically speaking, doing science based policy in a "Vaccines Amen!" culture is a bridge too far just yet. I hope we can one day soon cross that bridge to the land of science. I will truly say Amen to that!
A step in the right direction. This statement is accurate that has been expressed as indicated that has overbearing influences that the vaccine manufacturers have on the decision makers at the CDC and the FDA that must be corrected!
The U.S. system, by contrast, compresses numerous injections into the first year of life, creating heavy antigen and aluminum exposure during a critical developmental window.
Though there are apparently far fewer vaccines given in Denmark, Germany, & Japan, it would still be good to know what the incidence of autism & SIDS is, in those countries. I'd also love to know how many pediatricians here & elsewhere have read "Turtles All The Way Down" & "Dissolving Illusions", by Suzanne Humphries, MD. Maybe what is really needed is to re-examine the need for vaccines at all.
Another very good book, which I am currently reading is, "Follow the $cience" - How Big Pharma Misleads, Obscures, & Prevails, by investigative journalist Sharyl Attkisson. She really pulls back the curtain on many medically-related issues, including vaccines & provides information for how to access many related links. Highly recommend.
I recall when we were strongly encouraged to have our now 32 year old daughter vaccinated at age 12 for HPV. That was still when the juvenile vaccine schedule still seemed much more reasonable. None the less as parents we were still reluctant to vaccinate our young daughter against a STD caused virus. Ultimately, we let our pediatrician talk us into it. I still regret being pressured into it, but our daughter shows no signs of damage, so I guess it worked out OK.
If my kids were on the most recent vaccine schedule, I'd be highly resistant to all those jabs, especially for my newborn/infant/toddler.
Progress yes, but nothing is gentler for children than focusing on the healthy immune system they are born with and making that more robust. To reduce the number of vaccines is a first step, but its essential that current vaccines are tested against a placebo for safety and efficacy.
That requires that Prenatal care is robust and lacks toxins from the food and drug sources and includes monitoring key nutrient blood levels especially Magnesium and vitamin D which is generally ignored.
01/05/26: Go, Doctor Malone! (actually, the two doctors Malone, hi Jill!). Thank you once again for keeping us abreast of all of these changes. The entire American nation stands to benefit from your dedicated and honorable vigilance, which is the very essence of the definition of patriotism.
Thanks for the heads up and news of progress. Having read your article about the Association of American Medical Colleges and the other medical boards, I am surprised that this much progress has been made. Thanks to all you health warriors!
A good step, and I'm so glad to see it. Now let's get rid of HPV and some others.
Can we PLEASE agree, though, that vaccinations, no matter what the CDC calls them, are not immunizations? Vaccinations are usually injections, bypassing the body's immune defenses, and may or may not cause the correct immune response. Immunization, otoh, is caused by the body's natural defenses. Vaccination often doesn't give long-lasting immunity, while the natural disease does. Consider measles, for example. Several "outbreaks" are among the vaccinated and can be traced back to the vaccine's modified virus. Naturally occurring measles gives lifelong immunity. Equating the two is a psychological trick to promote vaccines.
Excellent! The use of Outlining is a major contribution making the new guidance more understandable.
Next the USA should strive for Leadership within the consensus group by defining, mandating and interpreting the recommended “large scale placebo controlled trials” as well as defining points to consider when assigning individual patients to the cohorts of “high risk groups.”
Yup. The ability to “roll up” the major points within even the Best examples of good technical writing are a particular skill set. Communicating at “layman level” is necessary follow up which can be challenging.
01/05/26: One must write succinctly. In three seconds, a reader decides to stay or leave. In a related note, there's no substitute for vivid and original writing, which makes it a simple task to ignore most of what remains to be seen.
Rolling up to the Header or Introduction level enables the author and first editor to select words and phrases most likely to be picked up as Sound Bites and Headlines. Why leave that to “Others”?
01/05/26: Alas, you are speaking to a computer-illiterate (me). All I know how to do is write well (alas, inconsistently). I must take your word for it as to technique.
And if I may add, I've discovered that the more people (present company excluded) know about and immerse themselves in computer systems, the less competent they become in expressing themselves clearly and succinctly.
🤣🤓👍🏻👏Very good Don - my use of outlining in communication applies whether the writer uses a goose quill or a computer.
Outlining to organize content is applied Before writing to help a writer with a lot of Content to “lay down”, especially when the final document must follow a publication/submission guideline. This Outline may be throw-away scratch …
Outlining After placing all the Content “in the record” is helpful to diverse Readers and is an authors “last chance” to convey the meaning of the content to a wider audience. This is usually a mix of Original writing and cribbed text. I call this a first “roll up”.
What I meant by Header/Introduction roll up is an Author’s final opportunity to apply your 3-second rule to each major point he/she believes worthy of separate attention.
I’m a rank amateur as a writer. This is just how I do things after a career of technical writing - and developing Presentations for various audiences. 🧐🤨🥸

Glad to see some return to rational thinking!
Wonderful news. Saw it in WSJ….and the Winning continues!

Can't wait to hear what the Usual Suspects have to say.
The higher the panic level, the happier I will be.

MAHA!!!
Sanity, science and logic are making a comeback. The complete industry capture of our healthcare is relaxing, tentacle by tentacle.
I am reminded of a quote “ The price of freedom is eternal vigilance “. 😊

Thank you so much!
Have just sent it off to my Boss Lady mother of 3.
Heartening progress, particularly with all the followup support!
Next, studies to establish effectiveness and actual safety.
Five years of efforts. The boulder is moving up the mountain. Again Thank You!
Smelling salts for Pharma?
