Changes are being made to federal childhood vaccine policy. The Trump administration is behind the changes, which will affect the scheduling of childhood vaccines. The new approach will focus on individual risk and give more consideration to decision-making by parents.

This means that parents will have a greater say in the vaccination process for their children. Further details on the changes and what they mean for families in Abilene can be found through KTXS, the local ABC affiliate, which is following the story and providing updates as more information becomes available.
