The CDC just published its 2025 vaccine immunization schedule1 and now recommends more than 200 routine injections. This includes five vaccinations during pregnancy, over 70 vaccinations from birth to age 18, and more than 130 routine adult vaccinations up to age 79. If you include the barrage of non-routine vaccinations, it’s even more.
If following CDC recommendations, here is what a baby receives during its first 0-12 months of life:
- 2x Hepatitis A (HepA)
- 3x Hepatitis B (HepB)
- 3x Rotavirus
- 3x Diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (DTaP)
- 3x Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib)
- 4x Pneumococcal conjugate (PCV15)
- 3x Polio (IPV)
- 3x COVID19
- 1x Influenza
- 1x Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)
- 1x Measles, mumps and rubella (MMR)
- 1x Varicella
That’s 28 doses during an infant’s first year of life made by pharmaceutical companies with zero liability for the injuries or death caused by their products—and who profit from not only the initial vaccine dose but the diseases they create.
Pregnant women are now told they need at least five injections (seven vaccines) during pregnancy, including influenza, COVID-19, Tdap, RSV, and a flu booster if it’s a “bad season.” This push comes despite glaring gaps in long-term safety studies for vaccines in pregnancy. The pharmaceutical companies and regulatory agencies reassuring us these are safe might as well hail from the Land of Oz, where data transparency and accountability don’t exist.
To put the insanity of current vaccine recommendations in perspective, in 1986, the CDC recommended seven routine “immunizations” from birth to 12 months.
Seven.
That’s fewer than most babies now receive in a single doctor’s visit.
Of course, even those vaccines were far from perfect. The DTP vaccine, for instance, was riddled with side effects, including autism, and was ultimately replaced due to public outrage. And the oral polio vaccine? It caused vaccine-derived polio.
But fast forward to today, and the CDC schedule is unrecognizable. They can’t claim the schedule is about preventing polio or measles anymore. For example, the CDC recommends vaccinating against hepatitis B—an infection primarily spread through high-risk adult behaviors like IV drug use and unprotected sex. Why is this being injected into hours-old newborns, especially when any supposed immunity it does provide against diseases obtained from risky behaviors infants are not participating in wears off?
The agency also recommends numerous experimental gene-therapy COVID-19 jabs, flu shots that have a greater chance of powering a light bulb than they do at preventing the flu, and a rotavirus vaccine co-invented2 by a physician who sits on the FDA’s “independent” vaccine advisory panel.3
None of these injections have been proven safe for children utilizing pre-licensure placebo-controlled studies. No study exists showing the CDC’s recommended schedule is safe, let alone that co-administering these vaccines is safe. Moreover, any immunity provided by a vaccine is temporary at best. (The COVID-19 injection doesn’t provide any immunity at all.)
Although many physicians across the United States are now awake thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, it is not enough. As parents, it is our job to familiarize ourselves with the recommendations, to scrutinize the science, and to ask questions:
- Are there pre-licensure, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies using inert placebos on these vaccines?
- Where are the studies that show co-administering any of these vaccines is safe?
- Where are the studies showing administering vaccines during pregnancy is safe?
- Who funded and conducted the studies?
- What ingredients are used in vaccines, and do the carcinogens, neurotoxins, and hazardous wastes they contain exceed acceptable levels (assuming you believe there are acceptable levels)?
- What were the rates of disease before vaccine licensure?
- What is my child’s risk of acquiring severe COVID-19 if not vaccinated?
- If my child suffers a serious adverse event, what is my recourse? (Are you prepared to fight in a no-win system for barely acceptable and almost impossible to obtain compensation?)
What I can tell you with almost absolute certainty is that the current and 2025 vaccination schedules were not created for the benefit of our children—or in the name of public health. If this were about public health, the scientific standards would be much higher, and they would not be so quick to trade a benign childhood illness (or an illness a child has an almost zero chance of acquiring) for a potentially lifelong, debilitating chronic disease.
The current vaccination schedule supports a billion-dollar industry created and maintained to benefit pharmaceutical companies, not our children.

Just say, “NO”! In regards to my children, I started saying NO in 1981 after 4 of my children had been harmed or died. I, myself, have not received any vaccines since 1963.
JUST SAY, NO!
Four of your children were harmed or died? How many died? How many children do you have?
Patt: Harmed or died, and you ask “how many died”. Maybe none, or one, or two? It is likely that this parent does not have an unlimited supply of kids. The issue is not a need for more clarity on numbers of harmed or dead. The concern is the total lack of long term scientifically supervised evaluations of the consequences of vaccination. Perhaps you know of some, or your medical professional might know. tom
Absolute insanity. And any pregnant woman or mother of a new baby who allows this, should have their head examined.
My daughter had an emergency C section but advised every doctor and nurse that treated her to absolutely not give her newborn son the Hep B vaccine
He was born a month early with holes in his lungs and just before they transferred him to a larger hospital and just a few hours old, they gave him that vaccine!
She was beside herself and tried to sue but the general masters in court make sure you never win that law suit
It’s disgusting that we don’t have any say in the health of our families
Criminals run our country. Criminals run our health care system. Criminals (wittingly or unwittingly) carry out their toxic mission. No one gets prosecuted. No one goes to jail. No one stops the mass poisoning. Where are the protest? Where is the horror? When will people stop the mass killing and disabling of their children? I am sick of this slaughter and people passing by as if nothing untoward is happening. We all need to shout out together, like Howard Beale did in Network that we’re not going to take it any more!
Well one of them just got shot in broad daylight…
When my daughter was a few hours old, the nurse came in and said it was time for her HepB shot. I asked her if there was any risk of my baby catching HepB in the hospital, and she reassured me that it could be caught only from needle sharing and unprotected sex. As she said this, I think she realized the absurdity of, therefore giving this shot to a baby hours after her birth. When I refused it for that reason, however, she got huffy and left. When she returned, she had a big sign that said “NO” on it, which she put in my daughter’s plastic crib thing. When I was forced to return her to the nursery for a brief doctor’s exam, I noticed that every other crib had a “YES” sign in it. This was, of course, for the HepB shot. At least it was voluntary at that time.
These people are not experts. What they are doing is not science.
Is it any wonder that American life expectancy is declining and that this country has one of the unhealthiest populations in the developed world. Of course, other unhealthy issues come into play here such as garbage diet, crazy amounts of prescription drugs, deadly “treatments” like chemo, obesity, God-like trust by the uninformed in what flawed doctors say, minimal use of good alternative treatments, etc. Our medical system today is geared to enrich big pharma, doctors, and the medical establishment as the number one goal. The good of the general population is a distant second. I’ve not had any vaxes for many decades, and don’t plan on ever taking another one, ever. Lead a healthy life style, you don’t need to participate in the vax con-job insanity!
We have to take the bull by the horns and just shout…..NO!
Taking the bull by the horns, meaning taking matters into one’s own hands, does not mean shouting no, to those that have NO God given right to rule over you. It means to take matters into one’s own hands, and tell them that think to rule (over) you, to stick it.
I have ONE grandchild that has never been vaccinated; three others have autism . He is 16 years old, 6’3″ and healthy. Now he wants to join the military and I have told him that there are no exemptions there and he will be given all the shots at once including the experimental ones and that it may kill him or cripple him for life. He is in ROTC in HS which gives him a group to belong to but I am praying he changes his mind. There is also money for him to go to college if he chooses [which none of the rest of us had].
CAWS: The military may overlook the requirement for jabs now that their enrollment is down to almost zero. 73% of our youth does not meet the health requirements for join the military anyway, the kids are too damaged from the jabs (and toxic food supply). He will ONLY remain healthy if he does NOT take any jabs. Tell him again not to join or you will lose him.
I know I mention this frequently on here, but I work in early intervention with babies/toddlers from 0-3. The rates of autism, and not just autism but SEVERE autism with multiple co-morbid health issues is alarming, to say the least. Somehow, I was not even aware that this age group is receiving 3 COVID shots mandated now in their first year of life. What are we doing to our babies? I feel like I am fighting an uphill battle daily where distraught parents are like, “I just want my baby to talk”, and I’m dying inside thinking that is possibly never going to happen.
the information not accurate.
hib, PVC, mmr, var not 12 months 12-15 months.
hepa 12-23 months
also hepb and ivp 6-18 months .
