The Spin
Left narrative
This change signals a dangerous erosion of evidence-based medicine that will leave children vulnerable to preventable diseases. The committee ignored decades of safety data and expert input to make politically motivated decisions that could reduce vaccination rates and insurance coverage.
Right narrative
The ACIP is making long-overdue corrections to vaccine policies that for too long prioritized pharmaceutical profits over genuine safety concerns. The MMRV decision simply aligns recommendations with what most parents already choose. Kennedy's committee is properly shaking up the status quo.
