The US Department of Health and Human Services is changing its recommendations for the childhood vaccine schedule by no longer broadly endorsing influenza, Covid-19 and other once-routine immunizations. The new schedule now endorses 11 vaccines for children and more closely resembles the schedule for Denmark, compared with previously recommending immunizations to protect against 17 different diseases.
