What are parents to do as doctors clash with Trump administration over vaccines?

The nation’s leading doctors’ groups are in conflict with federal health officials over vaccines. The conflict intensified when an advisory committee, hand-picked by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime anti-vaccine activist, recommended ending routine vaccinations of newborns against hepatitis B, without presenting new evidence. This vaccine, which has significantly reduced liver disease and liver cancer, continues to be recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics and other medical groups. Doctors worry about mixed messages eroding public trust. They urge parents to consult their doctor for advice.
