Weird you ignored the whole redoing of the vote on MMRV vaccines. Yesterday, they removed the recommendation for the MMRV vaccine for children under 4 generally, but voted to uphold access through the federal Vaccines for Children program. Today, they reversed the second part. So, now the combined vaccine is no longer covered under the federal program and those that rely on it will not have access to the MMRV vaccine.  

I am not ignoring anything you lunatic. Yesterday they recommended MMR+V exclusively for children under 4; which was already the default recommendation. I don't agree with a move that restricts coverage in the VFC program for first dose. I am not sure that any coverage decisions should be tied to ACIP guidance (as opposed to say, FDA approved indications). But to be clear here, there is no functional difference in the coverage provided for first dose, and the combined MMRV shot will still be included in the program for second dose.

And no discussion from you regarding why this vote was tabled.

Been on conference calls and didn't get to listen to that part of the meeting to see how it unfolded. I'll comment on it at some point if you really want to hear my thoughts.

And of course, you continue the bullshit of equating a recommendation with forcing vaccination. And you ignore the proposed vote this morning was actually more akin to the type of governmental coercion than any recommendation that a vaccine be administered because it expressly stated that "The first dose of the Hepatitis B vaccine is not given until the child is at least one month old".

LOL.  You are functionally doing in your second sentence what you are accusing me of in your first.  What a clown.
