Child Vaccines

Citing the recent debt ceiling deal, the CDC is trimming its funding to child vaccination programs that focus on communities vulnerable to disease outbreaks.

Usually, 94% to 95% of kindergartners are vaccinated against measles, tetanus and other diseases. The vaccination rates dropped below 94% in the 2020-21 school year, and to 93% in 2021-22.

Dr. Scott Rivkees contradicts much of the evidence given by Florida’s health department in recommending that healthy children need not be vaccinated for COVID-19.
