You know, based on his gut feeling.

Or would you, as a doctor, kinda like to see some evidence about that?
some bundling...say dTAP has stood the test of time imho, and a policy that pushes multiple individual vaccines, while effective, is likely to lead to noncompliance and under vaccination.
As you will recall, I was opposed to RFK being appointed, and said so at the time. That has not changed.
I would be in the middle on this as I do think that there are unnecessary risks with overbundling. It could all be done in 2 visits rather than 6....but still more than 1.
No matter what, I support any parent's right to doing all vaccinations separately if they are willing to take on the inconvenience and make sure that their child is fully vaccinated. WHO COULD BE AGAINST THAT?
Unfortunately, the public distrusts the govt wrt vaccines due to Fauci's lies (whether you believe so or not). Many people assaulted - forced through unavoidable coercion to take a vaccine that they didn't want. They were told falsehoods in the past about the vaccine and various COVID protocols.
Many don't trust (believe it or not, not everyone was in the Cult of the High Sparrow). The multiple individual approach will at least improve vaccination rates by reassuring the group most likely not to get them.
