But Kennedy’s sudden, unilateral, and sweeping change to the nation’s childhood vaccine schedule, announced Monday, will do the opposite, pediatrics and public health experts warn.
“Our kids are going to die from some of these diseases that we have resources against,” Elizabeth Choma, a D.C. pediatric nurse practitioner, said.
