Child vaccine schedule trimmed amid parental medical authority shift

The order recommends immunizations for 11 diseases instead of 18, allows separate appointments for vaccines, and advocates splitting the MMR vaccine into individual shots. It also emphasizes parental choice and seeks legal challenges against states that restrict vaccine exemptions, aligning U.S. policies more closely with other developed nations.
