Episode notes
Neonatal Hepatitis B Recommendation Shift
- ACIP voted to change the hepatitis B newborn recommendation to shared decision-making for hepatitis B negative mothers.
- The shift acknowledges extremely low disease risk and raises questions about universal neonatal vaccination policy.
Manufacturers Acknowledge Serious Risks
- Aaron Siri and Del argue manufacturers list serious neurological harms for hepatitis B vaccine in product labeling.
- They say federal law requires only including reactions with a basis for causal relationship, implying recognized risks.
Denmark Shows Fewer Vaccines, High Coverage
- Denmark's childhood schedule has far fewer vaccines and no mandates while achieving similar coverage and outcomes.
- This suggests high uptake can coexist with voluntary programs and fewer recommended vaccines.
