 Listeners, as of today, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has updated its childhood immunization schedule, downgrading recommendations for several key vaccines including influenza, RSV, COVID-19, meningococcal disease, rotavirus, and hepatitis A and B from universal to shared clinical decision-making or high-risk only, according to the CDC's January 5 announcement reported by Word in Black and IDSE. Public health experts from the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America warn this comes amid a severe flu surge—the worst in 25 years—already claiming at least nine children's lives this season, with Massachusetts reporting its first pediatric flu deaths since 2013, per CIDRAP and ProMED.

ProMED reports ongoing measles concerns in the US, including a confirmed case in Georgia by the Department of Public Health—the state's first in 2026—and surges in South Carolina with over 200 quarantined, plus cases in North Carolina, Nebraska, Ohio, Idaho, Arizona, and Utah. Whooping cough, or pertussis, is rising in California, and states like Massachusetts reject the new CDC guidance as reckless, citing measles outbreaks and flu deaths.

Other alerts include vesicular stomatitis confirmed in a horse in Arizona by ProMED, new world screwworm noted by the CDC, rabies in a Texas fox, HIV cases in Maine, and tuberculosis possibly linked in a North Carolina high school. The FDA has removed alcohol from dietary guidelines, advising limits to reduce cancer and heart risks, per Faces and Voices of Recovery.

The Pan American Health Organization issued an alert for influenza and RSV across the Americas. Experts urge handwashing, staying home when sick, and following evidence-based advice from groups like the American Academy of Pediatrics despite federal changes.
