The World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a warning to U.S. President Donald Trump, stating that his administration's proposed changes to childhood vaccination schedules contradict decades of scientific evidence and could heighten health risks. The organization emphasized that spacing out vaccines goes against established medical consensus.

This warning comes as President Trump signed an executive order aimed at promoting further research and flexibility regarding vaccines. The order was accompanied by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Jayme Leagh Franklin from The Conservateur.

The WHO, operating as a leading global news agency, provides rapid, comprehensive, and verified coverage of current events and everyday topics. With a vast network of journalists in 151 countries, the agency also leads in digital verification. To ensure transparency and prevent distortions in public discourse, the WHO reserves its comment sections for subscribers to discuss article content, not authors.
