There have been quite a few developments on the vaccine front coming out of the HHS.

For instance, you had RFK Jr.'s new vaccine advisory panel recommend delaying the first vaccine that most children get, the hepatitis B vaccine that's given pretty much as soon as kids are born.

You had Trump signing an executive memo starting the process of aligning the U.S. vaccine childhood

schedule with that of other developed nations, and we'll discuss what the difference is between

us and them. You had states flip-flopping on the question of whether or not to allow religious

exemptions for school vaccines. We'll discuss which states and why. Some schools, though,

are allegedly going even further by

administering shots to kids without parental consent. And then lastly, not exactly vaccine-related,

but the HHS recently changed the name under the official portrait of Rachel Levine,

the transgender former Assistant Secretary of Health under Joe Biden, would tell you what that

name now actually says. And as a caveat,

I will mention two things before we dive into everything. First of all, vaccines are very touchy on

YouTube. I don't have an opinion on anything. I'm just presenting to you updates from the government,

from the HHS, what they're up to, why they're doing it. I'll give you their official statements and nothing else.

So don't cancel me, YouTube algorithm, please.

Second of all, speaking of algorithm, please do smash those like and subscribe button

so that this information can reach ever more people.

The algorithm suppresses us, but if we smash that like button and that subscribe button enough times,

maybe we can actually use

the algorithm, ride the algorithm to reach every more people. So please help me out with that.

And now with those caveats out of the way, let's jump in and talk about ASIP, otherwise known as

the advisory committee on immunization practices. It's basically the CDC's vaccine expert panel.
