A new executive order has been signed, leading to changes in federal childhood vaccine recommendations. These changes will affect the vaccines that are routinely given to all children. The updates do not indicate that vaccines are unsafe or ineffective, as research has shown they prevent serious illnesses and deaths.

Some vaccines will be recommended based on individual risk factors. Further details on the changes, including the impact on vaccine administration, are available from sources such as Ask Dr. Nandi on WXYZ Channel 7.
