CHILDHOOD VACCINATIONS

CHILDHOOD VACCINATIONS

Department of Education

According to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), national vaccination coverage among kindergarten children dropped to 93% during the 2021-22 school year — the lowest rate in the past decade.  This marks a one percentage point decline since the 2019-20 school year and a two percentage point drop since the start of the pandemic.  While this data might not seem substantial, it suggests that as many as 275,000 kindergartners lack full vaccine protection.

 

A second report found overall vaccination rates among younger children remained relatively high and stable, although there were declines among those who were poor and lived in rural areas.

 

The CDC launched a campaign called “Let’s RISE” — an acronym for Routine Immunizations on Schedule for Everyone — including materials to help physicians talk to families about vaccinations, as well as information for families who have questions about vaccinations.

  1. Perhaps even worse is that only 13% of American adults have had full course of injections. Trump and his Maga maggots transformed public interest/public health into a political issue. One of may terrible irreversible insanities
