CDC rolls out 200 routine vaccines for 2025, way up from 1983's SEVEN routine childhood injections, zero for adults and pregnant women

In November, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published the vaccine schedule for 2025, naming over 200 routine injections for children and teenagers, adults and pregnant women. From 1983 up to 1986, when the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, otherwise known as the Vaccine Act passed the U.S. Congress, there were only seven vaccines for children, including diphtheria, tetanus toxoids and pertussis (DPT), oral attenuated poliovirus (OPV), measles, mumps and rubella virus (MMR) and adult tetanus and diphtheria toxoids (TD). There were no vaccines recommended for adults and pregnant women. However, the 1986 Vaccine Act gave Big Pharma mandatory and national liability protection for the medical community. It also limited the venue for a vaccine claim to Washington DC. Moreover, there were no more universal releases, mass communication or documentation provided to parents on what to watch out for following the vaccination schedule. Vaccine activists have been lobbying against the Vaccine Act since the beginning, as it "tilted the balance of public good against individual rights and protection." Critics point out that victims of vaccine injuries are left with the long-term side effects of the jabs, while the medical community and Big Pharma are protected from any accountability. Worse, they continue to create more and more experimental injections. And now, over 200 vaccines are included in the schedule, including five routine injections during pregnancy, over 70 routine childhood injections (from birth to age 18) and over 130 routine adult injections (up to age 79). The new schedule also lists the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) shots for children and COVID-19 and mpox jabs for adults and pregnant women. (Related: The CDC knew COVID vaccines killed 163 children and injured 57,622, but still included the deadly shots in the childhood immunization schedule.) The figures do not yet include non-routine injections. Meanwhile, some critics of the vaccine schedule were given hope when President-elect Donald Trump nominated Robert F. Kennedy Jr to lead the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), subject to the confirmation of the U.S. senators. "The safety and health of all Americans is the most important role of any Administration, and HHS will play a big role in helping ensure that everybody will be protected from harmful chemicals, pollutants, pesticides, pharmaceutical products and food additives that have contributed to the overwhelming health crisis in this country," Trump said in a post on X. "Mr. Kennedy will restore these agencies to the traditions of gold standard scientific research, and beacons of transparency, to end the chronic disease epidemic, and to Make America Great and Healthy Again!" RFK Jr. is an environmental lawyer and a staunch opponent of the vaccine industry.

Routine vaccinations decline as exemption rates increase in children

According to CDC data, fewer kindergartners are getting routine vaccinations compared to pre-pandemic times, with the figures dipping from 95 percent in the 2019-20 school year to less than 93 percent in 2023-24. Due to a mix of ideological and religious reasons as well as data on vaccine damages and injuries, parents refused to submit to the vaccination mandate and even resorted to keeping their kids home from school. A CDC survey of parents in 2024 showed that 8.3 percent disagreed with the statement that school and child care "vaccination requirements for children are important and necessary." An additional 15.2 percent of parents said they had no opinion on the issue. "These results could indicate changes in attitudes toward routine vaccination transferring from hesitancy about COVID-19 vaccination, or toward any vaccine requirements arising from objections to COVID-19 vaccine mandates, as well as a potential for larger decreases in coverage or increases in exemptions," CDC said. Meanwhile, the vaccination exemption rate for this group rose from 2.5 percent in 2019-20 to 3.3. percent last year. This has been the highest level ever reported. Exemptions increased in 41 states and territories and surpassed five percent in 14 of them. That amounts to more than 126,000 kindergartners with an exemption from at least one vaccination for the 2023-24 school year. The combined decrease in routine shots and increase in exemptions "jeopardize" the 95 percent kindergartner vaccination rate goal for measles, mumps and rubella by 2030 set by the HHS. CDC has been persistent in meeting the 2030 goal as it vows to ensure that students begin the school year fully vaccinated by reducing the types of exemptions available. The agency also said that it would be working with parents to avoid invoking exemptions because of difficulty meeting vaccination requirement deadlines. It also said it would convince parents that vaccines are "safe and effective" and that there are risks for children who are not vaccinated.
