Trump Signs Order Attempting to Override CDC Vaccine Schedule and Break Up MMR Shots The latest salvo in the ongoing battle over childhood vaccinations was fired by Donald Trump, who signed an executive order aimed at fundamentally altering the way vaccines are administered to American children.
The move seeks to override the authority of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and impose a radical new approach on vaccination policy.
At its core, Trump's order attempts to break up the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine into three separate shots, each administered at a separate medical visit.
