Before we swallow the CDC’s new recommendations for vaccinating children no earlier than age 4, we should demand the data.
How many moms who either must or choose to work will now have to worry that their toddlers will come home with these utterly preventable childhood diseases? Will these children suffer long-term effects? How are we to do without these working mothers when the labor force is already stretched so thin? Seems to me no one has thought this through.
