A new issue brief provides a snapshot of this rapidly changing landscape, tracking which states have instituted changes in response to or in anticipation of administration policy changes. Additionally, KFF's The Monitor explores findings from the KFF-Washington Post Survey of Parents on views of childhood vaccines, and how the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) may have contributed to concerns about hepatitis B and COVID-19 vaccines. https://www.kff.org/other-health/new-kff-washington-post-poll-explores-parents-vaccine-attitudes-and-confusion-follows-acip-meeting-on-vaccine-recommendations/?utm_campaign=KFF-This-Week&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz--jXNLrcQuYbat9uefLO1gcdcBA2MPXeVuU4NQD8lFU6f_H63wNS2_3xB_xvnmCJBLMnmP8H5kQpbM9r4GdS_4ESHSz_g&_hsmi=382448570&utm_content=382448570&utm_source=hs_email And more: KFF Health News covered scientists' views of how Trump distorts facts on autism, Tylenol, and vaccines and how states are trying to "restore trust." ‘Sick to My Stomach’: Trump Distorts Facts on Autism, Tylenol, and Vaccines, Scientists Say By Amy Maxmen September 22, 2025 https://kffhealthnews.org/news/article/trump-autism-announcement-rfk-tylenol-pregnancy-vaccines/?utm_campaign=KFF-This-Week&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-99YBbiLbJLCo7Ha2olF_QOThPjhGBrdAAQnsKYRqzoA0Sl17sPPw1oSKkQxtzXPnaeMElfjxonywRZXmSzZV-01ufVlw&_hsmi=382448570&utm_content=382448570&utm_source=hs_email Amid Confusion Over US Vaccine Recommendations, States Try To ‘Restore Trust’ By Céline Gounder September 24, 2025 https://kffhealthnews.org/news/article/vaccines-states-hhs-cdc-acip-recommendations-rfk/?utm_campaign=KFF-This-Week&utm_medium=email&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-8Mz7NS25Jhf8GCmEdrLsWtjOjKZqTb-gMU-jK5X1f4zbMMnGbDJuWnmiilWq6dQlItlEA2TXBlQlpdB2xF_iJ5r2eLfw&_hsmi=382448570&utm_content=382448570&utm_source=hs_email
